Department for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy

The department represents the subject of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the University of Regensburg in teaching and research. The chair holder is Prof. Dr. med. Romuald Brunner.

Interdisciplinarity and cooperation with other institutes at the University of Regensburg are of great importance to our department, which is why various courses are offered for students of medicine, psychology, educational science, special education, biology, neuroscience, criminology and violence research.

In the area of research, our department is subdivided into various subject areas, ranging from prevention and care to basic clinical and therapeutic research. Using neuroscientific methods, psychodiagnostic procedures, experimental paradigms and digital media, we investigate various mental disorders and characteristics, which are characterized in particular by a high prevalence. Research focuses primarily on non-suicidal self-injury, suicidality, depressive and anxiety disorders, psychosocial stress and emotion processing, identification of early childhood risk and protective factors and personality traits such as alexithymia or empathy. In addition to various national and international research collaborations, the research activities are conducted in cooperation with the clinics, preclinical institutes and departments of the University of Regensburg.

If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact the secretary of the department or a research associate of choice. We look forward to hearing from you.
