What role do emotions play when we make decisions? Why does a novel like Harry Potter let us dip into strange worlds? Is it possible to feel a rubber hand as part of your body? These are just some of the types of questions researchers at the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience Berlin (CCNB) are looking for answers to. Various imaging methods such as MRI or EEG can be combined in the laboratories at Freie Universität. These methods make it possible to observe the brain while it is thinking or feeling. The CCNB was opened in 2015.
