Kerstin Hödlmoser has been awarded with a stand-alone project from the Austrian Science Fund FWF (378,908 €). She will investigate the impact of blue-enriched smartphone light exposure before falling asleep on sleep-dependent memory consolidation and emotion regulation in adolescents.
In this gating study Julia Krebs, Dietmar Roehm and their colleagues Ronnie Wilbur and Phillip Alday investigate which cues within the visual signal resolve local ambiguity in Austrian Sign Language (ÖGS). Disambiguation is triggered earlier than expected based on theoretical
The prize is awarded to young researchers by the Austrian Society for Neuropsychology (GNPÖ). Christine receives the prize for her work on circadian rhythms in severely brain-injured patients with disorders of consciousness.

The study of Julia Krebs, Dietmar Roehm and their colleagues Ronnie Wilbur and Evie Malaia, investigates the processing of locally ambiguous argument structures in Austrian Sign Language (ÖGS). Their experiment aimed to examine whether these structures are processed by a
In this study Christine Blume and Manuel Schabus and their colleagues sought to investigate to what extent processing of environmental stimuli is still possible during sleep and especially deep NREM and REM sleep. Moreover, they were interested in whether inhibition
