The Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research (HIH) and the Clinic of Neurology at the University Hospital Tübingen run the "Center of Neurology". Founded in 2001, the center owes its existence to an agreement between several entities: the non-profit Hertie Foundation, the State of Baden-Württemberg, the Medical Faculty of the University of Tübingen, and the University Hospital of Tübingen. The underlying bundling of public resources and private funds is unique in Germany.The center's role comprises patient care provided by the Clinic of Neurology as well as scientific research carried out by neuroscientists working at the HIH. This structural crosslink between the HIH and the Clinic of Neurology creates a multifunctional facility that is likewise capable of carrying out clinical brain research, medical attention, as well as scientific training. The close connection between excellent research and clinical care makes the HIH unique among all institutions in brain research. Currently, the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research comprises the following five departments, of which the first four are involved in clinical care:- Neurology with Neurovascular Medicine and Neuro-Oncology (Head: Prof. Dr. Ulf Ziemann)- Neurology and Epileptology (Head: Prof. Dr. Holger Lerche) - Neurodegenerative Diseases (Head: Prof. Dr. Thomas Gasser)- Cognitive Neurology (Director: Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Thier)- Cellular Neurology (Director: Prof. Dr. Mathias Jucker).
