Informazioni sull?autore

Gerald Langner received a diploma in physics from the Technical University of Munich in 1971. He then worked at the Max-Plank-Institute in Göttingen and at the TU Darmstadt where he studied hearing in birds and electroreception in fish. In 1985, during a research stay in Canberra, Australia, he discovered – together with Henning Scheich – the electric sense in platypus. From 1988 to 2008 he was Professor of Neurobiology in Darmstadt with his research focus on spatial and temporal aspects of processing in the auditory system.
