Biography

I am a neuroscientist and psychiatrist and currently part of the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the University Clinics of Jena. 

After earning my PhD in neurobiology, I started my postdoctoral work, which has centred on brain effects of ketamine in both healthy individuals and patients with major depressive disorder. 

I am particularly interested in the phenomenology and brain correlates of ketamine-induced bodily experiences. I conduct phenomenological interviews to explore the bodily experiences of patients during ketamine infusion.
