Overview

Simone Grimm is affiliated with the University of Zurich in Switzerland and has a research profile primarily situated within Medicine, Neuroscience, and Psychology. Their scholarly contributions emphasize subfields including Cognitive Neuroscience, Pharmacology, Experimental and Cognitive Psychology, Psychiatry and Mental Health, and Accounting. The main research topics revolve around the Treatment of Major Depression, Functional Brain Connectivity Studies, Electroconvulsive Therapy Studies, Anxiety, Depression, Psychometrics, Treatment, Cognitive Processes, Mental Health Research Topics, Law and Political Science, and Taxation and Legal Issues.

Among their recent publications are several peer-reviewed papers in well-recognized journals:

  • Altered resting-state functional connectome in major depressive disorder: a mega-analysis from the PsyMRI consortium, 2021, Translational Psychiatry
  • Antidepressant and neurocognitive effects of serial ketamine administration versus ECT in depressed patients, 2020, Journal of Psychiatric Research
  • Differential Alterations in Resting State Functional Connectivity Associated with Depressive Symptoms and Early Life Adversity, 2021, Brain Sciences
  • Comparison of Four fMRI Paradigms Probing Emotion Processing, 2021, Brain Sciences
  • Gray matter volume of rostral anterior cingulate cortex predicts rapid antidepressant response to ketamine, 2020, European Neuropsychopharmacology

Grimm has published multiple works in several scientific journals, with frequent publications in Neuroscience Applied, Translational Psychiatry, Journal of Psychiatric Research, European Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience, and Brain Sciences.

The scientist collaborates regularly with a core group of coauthors including Hans Helmschrott, Thomas Scheel, Matti Gärtner, Malek Bajbouj, and Luisa Carstens, with joint publication counts ranging from 13 to 48.

In addition to journal articles, Grimm has contributed to book publications through Schäffer-Poeschel eBooks. Notable book titles include Bürgerliches Recht und Steuerrecht (2021) and two editions of Abgabenordnung (2022 and 2024), which intersect with areas of law and taxation.
