After my carreer as musician I had to attend school again to get access to medical school. In this school I spent wonderful three years with 60 collegues - good mixture of fun and studies. Besides I was fortunately able to complete my musical studies.
In 2002 I went to Schiller-University Jena. I completed medical studies in 2009.
Besides I started a scientific project at the Institute for Physiology
Jena, measuring acoustic evoked potentials in musicians. The
Neuroscience meeting in Washington 2008 (picture above) was a great
opportunity to present my work. The PhD Thesis has been evaluated in 2014
and defended in 2015. Here the link to the published thesis.
