What does solving mysteries of the world have to do with brains? And how does one come from wanting to be a detective to research neural networks? In this episode, we're talking to Viktoria Zemliak. She is currently doing her PhD in the neuroinformatics research group at the Institute for Cognitive Science at the University of Osnabrück. As in many episodes, we will learn a lot about why a person is fascinated by the human mind and how this person ended up researching in the field of Cognitive Science more by accident than intention.
