About

Maximilian Buschner is the Head of the Day Clinic at the Center for Addictive Disorders, Psychiatric University Hospital Zurich, with over eight years of clinical experience in the field of substance use disorders. He is part of the Addictive Disorders Research Group led by Marcus Herdener at the University of Zurich. Maximilian’s recent research has innovatively applied the two-factor model of negative symptoms—typically used in schizophrenia—to alcohol use disorder (AUD), demonstrating their association with AUD severity and craving. He is also involved in the "Züri Can - Cannabis with responsibility" observational study, in which his research focuses on the mental health effects of cannabis use in a legally regulated environment.
