On this page you'll find all the people participating in the Dybuster project. Whereas Prof. M. Gross and C. Vögeli as computer scientists developed and continuously enhance the software, Prof. L. Jäncke, Dr. M. Meyer and M. Kast contribute the know-how to run a psychological study scientifically correct. Additionally, they are interested in neuropsychological models for Dybuster.

Attention: The contact information on this page might be outdated! For questions concerning the software or the study please contact C. Vögeli. His contact information was last updated November 2012.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Markus Gross is a professor of computer science, chair of the institute of computational science, and director of the Computer Graphics Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zürich. Since nearly 20 years Gross is doing research in the fields of computer graphics, image processing, physical based simulations and game technologies. He wrote more than 100 international publications. In the recent past he developed a growing interest for the use of multi-medial technologies for therapies of learn disabilities and for the mathematic modeling of human learn behavior. He's the father of Dybuster and wrote the first version of Dybuster on his own.

Prof. Dr. Lutz Jäncke is full professor for neuropsychology at the University of Zürich. Since over 20 years Jäncke is doing research in the fields of functional neuroanatomy and neuropsychology of motor, auditory and emotional functions. He published his results - which gave fundamental insight into the interrelation between brain and behavior - in more than 100 international publications. He's main focus is on the impact of musical training on the development and convertibility of the human brain. For the Dybuster project professor Jäncke's expertise as empirically working clinical neuropsychologist is of great value.

Dr. Martin Meyer is assistant professor at the neuro-radiology institute of the university hospital in Zürich. He's using mainly modern imaging techniques for his research of the organization of the lingual and auditory function of the brain. A main focus lies in the aspects of cerebral processing of acoustic and prosodic patterns of language and audition, in the basic principles of multimodal associative learning as well as in neuroanatomy of lingual systems in different modalities.

Christian Vögeli has got a master in computer science from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zürich. In his master thesis he was working on the information theoretical model of Dybuster, the ideal color coding of the letters and optimal word selection for the Dybuster training. In October 2005 he passed the final exams with distinction. He was the man in charge of the first Dybuster study before he switched in May 2007 to the newly founded Dybuster AG (www.dybuster.ch).
