As of April 1, 2014, the professorship was founded at the TU Dresden to enhance epidemiologic research and education at universities. It is initially funded by the Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) over 3 years within the scope of the project „The epidemiology of functional and dysfunctional behavioral and psychological factors in mental health and disease“. Under this project, the Behavior and Mind Health (BeMIND) study is currently conducted in a community random sample of adolescents and young adults in Dresden.
