I am a board-certified psychiatrists and senior researcher working at the Department of Psychiatry at the Medical University of Vienna since 2013. Coming from a background of biological psychiatry and particularily neuroimaging and genetics, since 2018 my work centers on research in social psychiatry, epidemiology and application of advanced statistics such as supervised and unsupervised machine learning and network models to clinical and sociodemografic data. 

After completing my habilitation in 2020 and the tenure track of Medical University of Vienna in 2023, my current position as Priv.Doz. and Ap.Professor includes clinical duties as head of the psychiatric outpatient and consultation services of the Clinical Division of Social Psychiatry, as well as various research and teaching activities at the Medical University of Vienna. Being affiliated to research at the Division of Insurance Medicine of the Karolinska Institute since 2023, my work here primarily adresses pharmacoepidemiology and diverse outcomes in common mental disorders and bipolar disorder.
