Joachim Groß has been head of the Institute of Biomagnetism and Biosignalanalysis at Münster University since 2017. WWU - Peter Leßmann On Malmedyweg there is a building - between the University Hospital and the sports grounds, and set back a little - which at first glance looks like a log cabin in the woods. Dark wood panels embellish the façade of the Institute for Biomagnetism and Biosignalanalysis, which belongs to the field of translational cognitive neurosciences. The experts there investigate the brain's activities - in both healthy and diseased brains. Prof. Joachim Groß, 54, has headed the Institute since 2017. After almost twelve years in Glasgow at the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, he moved to Münster.
