Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Institut für Neurowissenschaften und Medizin (INM-2)
studied medicine and philosophy in Aachen, Cologne and Düsseldorf, where he received his doctorate in the field of neuroreceptor autoradiography. After specialist medical training at Cologne University Hospital he completed his habilitation in neurology at the University of Düsseldorf. Since 1998 he has headed – at times in tandem with his post at Düsseldorf University Hospital – a research group for molecular neuroimaging at the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine, Forschungszentrum Jülich, and is the spokesperson for the Jülich unit of the “API Research” Helmholtz programme.
Caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance worldwide. It supplies the active ingredient in beverages such as coffee, tea and energy drinks. Caffeine can focus vigilance (…)
A New Tool for Cryo-Electron Microscopy
Researchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich and Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf led by Prof. Dr. Carsten Sachse are using cryo-electron microscopy, or cryo-EM for short, to make biomolecules visible at the atomic level. In a paper now published in the journal Nature Methods, they present a ... more
Synapses as a model: solid-state memory in neuromorphic circuits
They are many times faster than flash memory and require significantly less energy: memristive memory cells could revolutionize the energy efficiency of neuromorphic computers. In these computers, which are modeled on the way the human brain works, memristive cells function like artificial ... more
Alzheimer’s Research: New Insights into the Formation of Toxic Protein Clumps
Small aggregates of proteins known as Aβ oligomers are suspected as the main cause for the development of Alzheimer’s disease. However, it is not yet clear where and under what conditions these toxic aggregates form. Researchers from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf and Forschungszentru ... more
Macromolecular environments influence proteins
The high-intensity interaction of proteins with other macromolecules can cause signifi cant changes to protein properties such as translational mobility, for example, or their conformational states. Accordingly, the study of proteins in macromolecular environments that typically very closel ... more
Caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance worldwide. It supplies the active ingredient in beverages such as coffee, tea and energy drinks. Caffeine can focus vigilance and attention, reduce drowsiness and enhance the ability to perform cognitive functions. Its neurobiologi ... more
Jörg Fitter studied physics at the University of Hamburg. After completing his doctoral studies at FU Berlin, he worked in neutron scattering and molecular biophysics at the Hahn Meitner Institute in Berlin and Jülich Research Center. He completed his habilitation in physical biology at Hei ... more
studied medicine in Aachen before receiving his doctorate in sleep research from the German Aerospace Centre (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt, DLR) in Cologne. During 2008/2009, he was a visiting researcher at the Brain Imaging Centre in Canada’s Montreal Neurological Institute an ... more
