Associate Professor Manuela Gander is a faculty member at the University of Innsbruck's Department of Clinical Psychology II. Her office is located at Universitätsstraße 5-7 (Room 3S12), and she can be contacted via email at Manuela.Gander@uibk.ac.at or by phone at +43 (0)512 507-56016. Consultation hours are available by appointment.
Her research integrates clinical psychology with neurobiological approaches, focusing on:
- Attachment theory applied to adolescent psychopathology
- Personality disorders and their neurostructural correlates in eating disorders
- Trauma processing in vulnerable populations (e.g., refugees)
- Gender dysphoria and identity development in youth
- Neuroimaging biomarkers for treatment response
Recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate strong emphasis on longitudinal neuroimaging studies of anorexia nervosa, attachment-related neuroplasticity, and transdiagnostic approaches to adolescent personality pathology. Over 50% of her recent work investigates neurobiological mechanisms underlying therapeutic outcomes.
She supervises scientific work but no specific student names or awards are mentioned in available sources.
