Zusammen mit Prof Emrah Düzel vom #DZNE durfte ich in der Mitteldeutschen Zeitung unser neues Zentrum für #Hirngesundheit an der #UMMD vorstellen. Auch im Bereich Brain Health brauchen wir eine Vorsorgekultur, wie sie etwa in der Krebsvorsorge bereits selbstverständlich ist.

Alcohol consumption is known to increase during the holiday season. Abstaining from alcohol during the so-called ‘Dry January’ is intended to help restore balance. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to give an interview on this topic to MDR. Many thanks to everyone involved!
