As part of the Science in the City weeks initiated by the city of Heidelberg an exhibition of the Cluster of Excellence 3D MATTER MADE TO ORDER will take place at the CNSR from July 03 - 28. It is about 3D printing on micro, meso and macro scale and how to make 3D structures across many scales using different 3D printing techniques. In addition to the exhibits, workshops on various 3D printing topics will be offered.

We are pleased to announce a workshop on Open Science with Dr. David Mehler (Head of the Applied Computational Neuroscience group of Aachen University, https://acn-lab.owlstown.net/people/1503-acn-lab-members). In the context of the replication crisis in the life sciences, the open science approach and in particular the pre-registration of proposed research projects has gained tremendous importance. The workshop will provide participants with the concepts of open science as well as practical skills to pre-register their studies.
Date: 16th and 17th of October 2023
Location: Core Facility for Neuroscience of Self-Regulation (CNSR), Hauptstr. 47-51, 69117 Heidelberg
Preliminary Topics:
DAY 1 (Monday, 16.10.2023) 10am to 4pm
- Reproducibility/Replicability issues
- Overview of preregistration and Registered Reports (RR) formats and requirements
- Adequate power analysis (theory and tutorial)
- Hands on session
DAY 2 (Tuesday, 17.10.2023) 10am to 4pm
-Follow-up discussion on peer-reviewed preregistrations
- Dealing with “null findings” (theory and tutorial)
- Bayesian sequential sampling designs
- Measurement reliability
- Hands on session
Please register by the end of September at the following email address:

As part of the master's seminar "Training and Cognitive Performance", students of the Institute of Sport and Sport Science (ISSW) were given the opportunity to visit the CNSR and learn about the latest methods in neuroscientific research.
Visit articleOn May 02 and 03, 2023, a workshop on the basics of fNIRS data acquisition and analysis will be held at CNSR, organized by MES Forschungssysteme GmbH and NIRx GmbH.
We are back! After extensive remodeling and reconstruction work, the CNSR has been open again since the beginning of May.
What has happened in the CNSR during this time?
After the pollutant remediation a comprehensive modernization of the corridor and several rooms took place. Three laboratories are now equipped with permanently installed air conditioning, which significantly improves experimental conditions even in hot summer months. In addition, another behavioral laboratory was set up.
A new lighting concept was implemented in the corridor and electronic displays were installed on all laboratory doors, which are directly linked to the online booking system and signal the current occupancy of the laboratory via a visual display.
We look forward to welcoming many researchers to our even more functional and modern CNSR space!
