Dr. Malin Hildebrandt has been working at the chair of addiction research since October 2019. She studied psychology at the Ruprecht-Karls-University Heidelberg and the Technical University Dresden. During her PhD, she examined whether neural parameters (fMRI) could predict symptoms of substance use disorders among (poly-)substance users. Since 2020, she is doing psychotherapy training in behavioral therapy and has completed a formation in systemic therapy and coaching (Certification: Systemische Gesellschaft) during her studies. She is involved in teaching through classes in the Master’s degree Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy as well as supervising Bachelor’s and Master’s theses.
Research interests:
- Substance use, in particular risk factors for consumption and the development of substance use related problems/symptoms
- Overlap of clinical psychology and neuroscience
- Biomarkers of psychological disorders and prediction of therapy success
- Applicability of imaging techniques for precision medicine
- Social affect and cognition
