Building on this expertise, I took on the responsibility of leading the Hand Surgery Outpatient Clinic at Wilhelminenspital in Vienna and was most recently appointed Head of the Department of Reconstructive Surgery in Germany. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, I spent a year conducting research on nerve compression syndromes.
