Tue 20.10.26 - Tue 19.01.27, 17:00 - 18:00

THIS ELECTIVE PROVIDES A UNIQUE OVERVIEW OF BRAIN DISEASES FROM A CLINICAL AND IMAGING PERSPECTIVE AND IS THEREFORE A CLEAR ASSET FOR ALL STUDENTS WORKING IN NEUROSCIENCE
Lectures by clinical experts will cover the pathophysiology and clinical appearance of disorders in which nuclear medicine methods can contribute to the diagnostic work up.
In particular the following conditions will be addressed:
• CNS tumours
• Movement Disorders and dementia
• Metabolic brain diseases
• Schizophrenia
• Central hearing disorders
Aspects related to imaging will be presented by natural scientists and encompass:
• Imaging devices (SPECT/CT, PET/CT) and software tools for data analysis
• Production of radiopharmaceuticals
• Preclinical (animal) imaging
Clinical cases and corresponding imaging results will be demonstrated. Studies in animal models of disease will be presented. Finally, the participants will have the opportunity to visit the human PET centre, the radiochemistry unit and the preclinical imaging lab of the MHH and to obtain preliminary hands-on experience using specific software tools for the analysis of neuroimaging data.
Workload: The best overview can be obtained with participation in most of the lectures. Supervisors of the participants’ PhD theses should agree to this.
Course slides can be provided – allowing specific preparation/reading, if interested.
Additionally, short visits to the nuclear medicine department are possible, for
seeing/participating in patient anamnesis, informed consent, preparation before imaging, data
acquisition and analysis, reporting to referring physician.

Wed 21.10.26 - Wed 06.01.27, 14:15 - 15:30

Presentation of current topics in behavioral therapy for dogs and horses.
Objective: To deepen understanding of course content and facilitate discussion.
Note: Sessions can be attended independently of one another (each session lasts 2 hours).

Meißner, Richter Assêncio, lab members

Wed 14.10.26, 16:15 - 17:45

PhD students from the Department of Pharmacology will give lectures about their current research projects and will present recent data. The talks are interactive to allow a thorough discussion of the research. Talks are mostly in German.

Hildebrandt

Mon 19.10.26, 10:00 - 12:00

The state of the art and literature seminar of the Hildebrandt group at the Institute of Clinical Biochemistry addresses current practical and theoretical aspects in cellular and molecular neuroscience, with a focus set on enzymes that generate neuron-specific glycotopes involved in cell-cell communication in the nervous system.
