Loreen completed her studies in physics at Leipzig University, earning her diploma in 2010. She subsequently joined the Durstewitz Lab at the Central Institute of Mental Health in Mannheim and the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) Heidelberg-Mannheim, where she worked until 2015. In February 2014, she received her PhD in computational neuroscience from Heidelberg University.
She then conducted postdoctoral research in the Sprekeler Lab at TU Berlin and the Clopath Lab at Imperial College London. From 2022 to 2025, she was an independent postdoctoral researcher at TU Berlin, supported by funding from the German Research Foundation (DFG). Since 2025, Loreen has been a permanent postdoctoral researcher in the Sprekeler Lab at TU Berlin.
Her current research in computational neuroscience focuses on network modeling, the role of inhibition and inhibitory interneurons, prediction-error circuits, and uncertainty.
