Andrea Kühn

Prof. Dr. Andrea Kühn serves as Professor of Neurology at Charité - Berlin University of Medicine since 2007 and leads the Movement Disorders and Neuromodulation Unit within the Department of Neurology since 2016. She maintains dual affiliation with Charité and the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) Berlin, where her primary research operations are coordinated.

Her research centers on elucidating the pathophysiology of movement disorders and optimizing neuromodulation therapies, with specific emphasis on how oscillatory network activity influences deep brain stimulation efficacy. This work bridges clinical neurology and translational neuroscience to develop targeted interventions for Parkinson's disease and related conditions.

Prof. Kühn actively contributes to major clinical studies including MIGAP (Multicenter Interventional Gait Analysis in Parkinson's) and DESCRIBE-PSP (Describing the Natural Course of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy), advancing understanding of neurodegenerative movement disorders through longitudinal data collection and neuromodulation protocol refinement. Her Movement Disorders and Neuromodulation Unit operates as a dedicated clinical-research hub integrating patient care with cutting-edge electrophysiological investigations.
