Britta Westner

Associate investigator, Collaborator

Radboud University

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Donders Centre for Cognition. My current research focuses mainly on the intersection of language and memory. Since my background is in visual neuroscience, I am naturally also interested in the intersection of language and vision. I work with electrophysiological data and have a focus on data analysis methods such as source reconstruction or MEG decoding. Furthermore, I am enthusiastic about open source and am part of the core developer team of MNE-Python since 2019.
