Шаблон:Short description Inga Katharina Koerte is a German neuroradiologist. She currently holds a dual affiliation as Professor of Biological Research in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU), Munich, Germany and as lecturer in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School (HMS), Boston, USA. Since 2018 she is associate faculty member of the Graduate School of Systemic Neuroscience (GSN) in Munich. Her research focusses on the effects of brain trauma on the brain's structure and function, as well as the development of diagnostic markers that can be used for the purpose of both therapeutic, and preventative interventions.

Life

Education

In 2006 Koerte received both her M.D. and her doctorate title (Dr. med.) from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich. Afterwards she pursued post-doctoral fellowships at the Paediatric Neurophysiology at Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich as well as the Psychiatry Neuroimaging Laboratory (PNL) of the Harvard Medical School, Boston. In 2013 she achieved her habilitation in experimental radiology in Munich under Prof. M. Reiser.

Career

Research

Koerte is well known for her research in the areas of traumatic brain injury, repetitive head impacts, neurodevelopment and cutting-edge neuroradiology. She was the first to show alterations in the brain's microstructure following repetitive subconcussive head impacts in young athletes without a history of concussion, as well as structural changes in ice hockey players over the course of a play season. together with her team, she detected signs of accelerated aging and neuroinflammation associated with exposure to repetitive brain trauma, identified risk factors, and biomarkers for neurodegeneration following brain trauma such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). In 2012 her group was the first to detect microstructural brain alterations associated with heading the ball in soccer. Dr. Koerte is head of the laboratory cBRAIN (Child Brain Research and Imaging in Neuroscience).
