Doc. MUDr. Lucie Bártová PhD
Lucie Bartova, born in Ostrava, Czech Republic, obtained her medical degree (MD) in 2012 from the Medical University of Vienna (MUV) in Austria. As a diploma and later a doctoral student at the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at MUV, she investigated neuroimaging correlates of acute and remitted major depressive disorder (MDD) under the supervision of Prof. Lukas Pezawas (ORCID: 0000-0002-1329-6352) and received her PhD in 2019. Simultaneously, she completed her psychotherapeutic training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and her residency in psychiatry. Throughout this period, she actively participated in clinical and neuroimaging studies, focusing predominantly on MDD, anxiety disorders as well as schizophrenia and psychopharmacotherapy of brain diseases in general.
Under the supervision of Prof. Siegfried Kasper (ORCID: 0000-0001-8278-191X), the former head of the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at MUV, Bartova increasingly concentrated on treatment-resistant depression (TRD). From 2021-2022, she served as a visiting scientist with a focus on TRD at the Psychiatry Institute within the Department of Biomedical and NeuroMotor Sciences at the University of Bologna in Italy, under the supervision of Prof. Alessandro Serretti (ORCID: 0000-0003-4363-3759). In the meantime, she has expanded her scientific scope by investigating an individually tailored therapeutic approach for the Long-COVID (LC) syndrome with neuropsychiatric manifestations.
Bartova has presented her research findings in English, German and Czech at national and international conferences, published in renowned psychiatric journals, and received performance scholarship of MUV, as well as several national and international travel and research awards. She has regularly served as a member of the scientific program and local organizing committees for national and international psychiatric and neuroscientific congresses, including ÖGPB, IFMAD, CINP, and EPA. Currently, she is an executive board member of the international psychiatric associations, EPA and CINP, as well as the Austrian ÖGPB.
Additionally, she is a member of the editorial boards of several prestigious national (Austrian and Czech) and international psychiatric and neuroscientific journals, including Frontiers in Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics (during the chief editorship of Prof. Giovanni Fava and his team), Discover Mental Health, Journal für Neurologie, Neurochirurgie und Psychiatrie, JATROS Neurologie & Psychiatrie, Psychiatrie, MDPI: Innovations in the Treatment for Depression and Anxiety, and Psychedelics: The Journal of Psychedelic Pharmacology. Since 2023, she has been privileged to serve as an associate editor of the International Journal of Psychiatry in Clinical Practice.
In 2022, she completed her Habilitation in Psychiatry ("License to Teach Psychiatry") at MUV, earning the academic title Privatdozentin (PD). In 2024, she secured an internal career agreement (tenure track, associate professor for the period 2024-2027) at MUV. She currently serves as Deputy Head of the main and emergency psychiatric outpatient unit, and of the special outpatient unit for TRD, and Head of the special outpatient unit for Pharmacogenetics.
