They are then more likely to accept disadvantages themselves in order to punish members of their group who behave selfishly. A research group headed by the economics researcher Lauri Sääksvuori at the Max Planck Institute of Economics in Jena has gained this insight by conducting investigations involving game theory. This could result in a way of spurring people on to save energy.

The brain never processes the same information in the same way. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences have found out why this is the case and how it works. A decisive role plays a critical state of the neuronal networks.
If you direct it to something else, a first, strong brain response can still occur

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence in Martinsried seek to understand how such a complex system as the brain can develop, how it functions and what happens when it is injured or attacked by germs.
