About Our Guest
Michael Gaebler is a cognitive and neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in the department of neurology’s Mind-Body-Emotion group and the MindBrainBody Institute. He studies how mental processes, like thoughts or feelings, relate to brain-body and especially brain-heart interactions in pathology and health. Gaebler conducts psychophysiological and neuroimaging studies in classical lab-based experiments but also uses more naturalistic setups like ambulatory assessment and virtual reality.
