## Languages

Native German speaker: EEG reports, case discussions and documentation for hospitals in Germany, Austria and Switzerland are written directly in precise clinical German. The same applies to German-language needs elsewhere, for example international hospitals caring for patients and families from German-speaking countries, or neurotech and medtech companies working with German-speaking clinicians, users or markets.

Fluent in spoken and written English, including the specialist terminology of epileptology and clinical neurophysiology. English has been a working language for many years: at international congresses, in the European Task Force on Paediatric Epilepsy Surgery and during training abroad, including an observership at Cleveland Clinic (Ohio, USA).

Language skills at a glance:

- German: Native
- English: C1, fluent
- Italian: B1, intermediate
