My research covers prevalence of disorders, comorbidity, brief and early interventions, and impact of addiction on individuals, based on quantitative and qualitative study designs.
Biography:
While studying German literature and history in Heidelberg and Hamburg, I started 1998 as a student worker in addiction research in psychiatry. Since 2009, I work as a researcher in the research group S:TEP (Substance abuse and related disorders: Therapy, Epidemiology, and Prevention) at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Lübeck. During my PhD in German literature (2012), I started studying Public Health at the University of Applied Sciences in Hamburg and received my Master in 2014. I have worked in various studies on family members covering burden, barriers to treatment, and interventions.
I am a member of the steering committees of the German Society for Addiction Research and Therapy and of the North German Addiction Research Network. I am a member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) and the International Network on Brief Interventions for Alcohol and other drugs (INEBRIA).
