Facility for Sleep and Circadian Neuroscience
The Max Planck Research Facility for Circadian and Sleep Neuroscience is set to host cutting-edge neuroscientific research. Combining methods from vision science and multimodal neuroimaging, we aim to significantly advance our understanding of how circadian rhythms and sleep influence physiological and psychological processes. The facility will serve as a local research hub, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration among basic and applied circadian and sleep research in the Tübingen area and beyond.
The Facility for Sleep and Circadian Neuroscience at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics is located on the Max Planck Campus Tübingen at building Max-Planck-Ring 10.
