Annette Werner studied biology at the Free
University Berlin (West Berlin), and in 1990 completed her
Ph.D. (Colour Constancy in the Honeybee, Apis mellifera)
at the laboratory of Prof. R. Menzel, Institute of Neurobiology.
Between 1990 and 1995, she worked as a
postdoctoral research associate at the University of München
(Prof. W. Paulus, Department of Neurology & Neurophysiology),
the Free University Berlin (Prof. O.J. Gruesser, Department
of Physiology), the University of Freiburg (Prof. L. Spillmann,
Department of Biophysics), and at the University Eye Hospital
Tübingen (Prof. E. Zrenner, Department of Experimental
Ophthalmology).
In 1996, Dr. Werner relocated with her
husband to Hong Kong. Here she worked as a research associate
at the Hong Kong University for Science and Technology (Prof.
A. Naiman, Department of Computer Science) and the Hong
Kong Polytechnic University (Prof. G. Woo, Department of
Optometry & Radiography).
After a period of maternity leave between
the end of 1998 and 2000, she moved with her family to New
York where she worked as a Visiting Scholar at the laboratory
of Prof. L. Maloney, Department of Psychology & Center
for Neural Science, New York University.
After a further relocation to the UK in
2001, Dr. Werner finally returned with her family to Tübingen
in 2002. Here she built up the Colour and Visual Psychophysics
Research Group at the University Eye Hospital Tübingen,
which she continues to lead to the present day.
She is also a member of the Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) www.cin.uni-tuebingen.de , and speaker on the CIN Board for the Advancement of Women.

Iliya Ivanov, PhD
|
|
Iliya graduated in 2002 from St. Kl. Ohridsky University with an MSc and BA in Physics and, in 2004, completed a Research Fellow degree at the Institute of Neurobiology, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia.
In Tübingen he was as a Marie Curie Early Stage Research Fellow, part of the EU sponsored PerAct programme, as well as a student of the International Max Planck Graduate School of Neural and Behavioural Sciences, Tübingen.
After completing his PhD on The Role of Colour in Visuo-motor Integration he continued as Postdoc with his reasearch on Decoding of colour from human brain activity (fMRI) (supported by CIN).
He now works in the lab of Prof. Kathy Mullens at the McGill Vision Research Unit, University of Montréal, Canada on the fMRI investigation of color vision in the human brain.

Angela attended Jena University of Applied
Sciences, where she trained to become an optician. During
this period, she also studied and worked at the Hospital
Eye Clinic of Tübingen University, and in 2006 completed
her diploma thesis on Cortical Colour Processes: A Statistical
Analysis of the Effects of Ageing on Colour Constancy.
She now works as a research assistant at
the International Vision Correction Research Centre (IVCRC)
at the Hospital Eye Clinic of Heidelberg University.
