“From the very beginning, my career has been driven by the desire to bridge practice and research to improve patient care and treatment. As a neurologist, I witness the urgent need for better therapeutic options every day. The translation of scientific advances into clinical practice remains slow, hindered by regulatory, economic, and institutional barriers. As Professor of Practice, I aim to bridge this gap by fostering structured collaborations between ETH, clinics, hospitals, and industry. ”Prof. Dr. Meret Branscheidt
