Dr. Boettcher has co-authored 48 peer-reviewed scientific publications (19 in the scope of LSDs). Since 1997, he has developed vast experience in the field of LSDs through his work in patient care (outpatient departments), basic research (Neurogenetic Laboratory, University of Rostock), and diagnostics (CENTOGENE). At CENTOGENE, he currently serves as Director Clinical Neurogenetics.
