Hendrik Theis, MD

I am a resident physician in the Department of Neurology and a clinician scientist in the MMNI group. I have been working in the MMNI group for almost ten years. My main research area is molecular imaging of atypical Parkinsonian syndromes with a special focus on Tau-PET in progressive supranuclear palsy. Additionally, I use Tau-PET imaging in IgLON5 and I am also interested in examining nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease with multimodal imaging. I am the study physician of our DoMoCo study. My clinical focus is movement disorders, botulinum toxin therapy, and neurological intensive care medicine.
