- Professor Knöpfel research interest revolve around the fundamental question how the brain generates cognition and emotions. What defines as, from a natural science perspective, to be human? On the practical level, his experimental work make good use of the opportunities offered by optical imaging technologies and genetics. He actively collaborates with theoretical neuroscientists to unravel neuronal circuit mechanism.
