Overview

Ernst Pöppel is affiliated with the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany and specializes primarily in the field of neuroscience. Their research spans various subfields including cognitive neuroscience, experimental and cognitive psychology, social psychology, sensory systems, and computer graphics and computer-aided design.

The scientist's work covers diverse topics related to brain function and perception, including:

  • Aesthetic perception and analysis
  • Neural dynamics and brain function
  • Neuroscience and music perception
  • Creativity in education and neuroscience
  • Visual perception and processing mechanisms
  • Olfactory and sensory function studies
  • Digital media and visual art

Ernst Pöppel has contributed to studies published in multiple venues, with a particular concentration in the PsyCh Journal and bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory). Other publication venues include Forschung & Lehre, Kursbuch, and the RSUH/RGGU Bulletin Literary Theory Linguistics Cultural Studies Series.

Recent publications include the following:

  • "Neuroaesthetics: The art, science, and brain triptych," 2020, PsyCh Journal
  • "Complementarity of mental content and logistic algorithms in a taxonomy of cognitive functions," 2022, PsyCh Journal
  • "Serial Dependence in Temporal Perception Reveals the Dynamics of Constructing an Internal Reference Frame," 2021, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • "An Aesthetic Frame for Three Modes of Knowing," 2022, PsyCh Journal
  • "Conscious vision in blindness: A new perceptual phenomenon implemented on the 'wrong' side of the brain," 2024, PsyCh Journal

Frequent collaborators in their research include Yan Bao, Xinchi Yu, Semir Zeki, Chen Zhao, and Вера Заботкина.

Throughout their career, Ernst Pöppel has received several recognitions: they became a member of the Academia Europaea in 2015 and of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts. They were also elected to the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina in 1993 for contributions to neurosciences.
