Graduate Programs
We aim at fostering a new generation of scientists who have been trained in both mathematical / computational skills and neuroscientific methodologies. Therefore, the Bernstein Center Berlin has set up two international, interdisciplinary graduate programs:
→ Master Program
→ Doctoral Program
News
Master Program Computational Neuroscience ist wieder akkreditiert/ Master Program is re-accredited
Das Master Programm Computational Neuroscience des BCCN Berlin hat den Akkreditierungsprozess erfolgreich abgeschlossen und ist bis zum 28.6.2028 akkreditiert. Es sind keinerlei Auflagen damit verbunden.
************
The BCCN Berlin Master Program Computational Neuroscience has been re-accredited without any conditions until June 8, 2028.
ERC Starting Grant and BMBF funding for Fatma Deniz/ERC Starting Grant und BMBF Förderung für Fatma Deniz
Fatma Deniz was successful with her ERC Starting Grant proposal on the research project "Linguistic Tuning Shifts in the Human Brain during Second Language Learning" and will receive 1,5 million euros to conduct her research.
In addition, she was awarded a BMBF funding (3,3 million euros) for her project "Language representations in bilinguals" in cooperation with the University of California, Berkeley, and the TU Berlin. These funds cover a 3 Tesla MRI scanner including high-end peripherals for neurocognitive applications.
The highly prestigious ERC starting grant and the BMBF grant will fund Fatma Deniz's research for the next five years. The competition for an ERC starting grant is quite challenging. Only 16 % of the applicants succeeded. The funding is part of the EU Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.
Congratulations.

About
The Bernstein Center Berlin was founded in 2004 and addresses one of the most challenging questions in computational and cognitive neuroscience:
“How is it possible that we can react to sensory stimuli with millisecond precision if intermediate processing elements – on the level of single synapses, single neurons, small networks and even large neural systems – vary significantly in their response to the same repeated stimulus?”
