Dr. Lennart Wittkuhn
Research Data Scientist

About
I am a Postdoctoral Research Data Scientist in the Research Group “Cognitive Neuroscience: Mechanisms of Learning and Change” at the University of Hamburg, an Associate Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, Berlin and an Honorary Fellow of the Max Planck UCL Centre for Computational Psychiatry and Ageing Research.
In my scientific work I investigate fast neural reactivation of task representations in the human brain using functional magnetic resonance imaging.
I am also passionate about computational reproducibility, research data management, open science and tools that improve the scientific workflow.
