Maria Wimber is a Professor at the University of Glasgow, specializing in cognitive neuroimaging. Her research focuses on the scientific inquiries into memory reconstruction, examining how the human brain recalls and adapts memories over time. Wimber employs behavioral multivariate decoding approaches, using EEG, MEG, iEEG, and fMRI to track neural signals that reflect these memories. A specific interest of hers is the hippocampal theta rhythm's role in orchestrating memory reactivation. She also investigates how memories change with repeated recall and the dynamics of forgetting, underscoring the adaptive qualities of human memory. Wimber has been involved in research funded by the European Research Council and other prestigious bodies, and she actively supervises postgraduate students and research assistants in her work at the university.
