Cardiovascular Diseases
The institute is conducting research aimed at improving outcomes after acute ischemic stroke and high‑risk transient ischemic attacks, exploring new strategies to lower the risk of subsequent vascular events.
- Evaluation of novel anticoagulant therapy for stroke prevention
- Strategies to reduce recurrent ischemic events
- Patient‑focused assessments of post‑stroke recovery
These studies are carried out at Klinikum der Universitaet Muenchen AöR, bringing together a large team of investigators to advance cardiovascular care.
Mental Disorders
Research at the department focuses on various forms of dementia, including Alzheimer disease, with efforts to refine diagnostic tools such as amyloid PET imaging and to evaluate their impact on patient and caregiver outcomes.
- Amyloid PET imaging for early detection of Alzheimer’s disease
- Differentiation of vascular and neurodegenerative dementias
- Assessment of patient‑centered benefits of advanced diagnostics
The work is embedded within the broader mission of Klinikum der Universitaet Muenchen AöR to improve mental health care through innovative research.
