Dr. Sabrina Theresia Müller, PhD

About me

Sabrina has been doing her PhD since August 2016, working in a large ongoing cohort epigenetic imaging-study, investigating depressed and healthy individuals. Its main objective is to identify novel risk factors for depression and a better understanding of its pathogenesis for the improvement of preventative approaches and treatments for depression and other stress-related psychopathologies. At the neurobiological level, we are interested in the pathway from BDNF genetic and epigenetic factors in association with serum BDNF levels and brain volumes. Data collection for the PhD is ongoing and will presumably continue until August 2018.
