Research
The Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the University Medical Center Freiburg is pursuing several lines of research to advance the understanding of mental disorders and the quality of care for patients.
Research at the Department encompasses a variety of treatment studies as well as basic science studies that aim to contribute to the development of novel and more effective treatments based on an improved understanding of the psychosocial and neurobiological underpinnings of the major mental disorders.
Research funding includes support from the German Research Foundation, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, the European Union and many other funding agencies.
