Trauer um Prof. Dr. med. Stephan Zierz

Die Universitätskliniken und Polikliniken für Neurologie, Neurochirurgie und das Institut für Anatomie (Schwerpunkt Neuroanatomie) trauern um den sehr geschätzten Kollegen und ehemaligen Direktor der Klinik für Neurologie Universitätsprofessor Dr. med. Stephan Zierz.

Herr Professor Zierz hat über viele Jahre die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit der Neurofächer in Halle gelebt und gefördert. Es war eine Freude mit Ihm über die beste Patientenversorgung, wissenschaftliche Projekte, interdisziplinäre Lehre aber auch über Kunst und Literatur zu diskutieren. Nach dem Medizinstudium in Gießen und Bonn, waren Klingenmünster, Göttingen, Rochester und Bonn Stationen auf seinem Weg gewesen, bevor er im Jahr 1994 die Leitung der Neurologischen Klinik und Poliklinik in Halle übernahm, die er bis 2021 innehatte. Generationen von Medizinstudierenden, Ärztinnen und Ärzte in Weiterbildung und Fachärztinnen und Fachärzte haben von seinem bereiten Wissen profitiert und seine Leidenschaft für die klinische Neurologie miterlebt. Seinem Engagement und unermüdlichem Einsatz ist es zu verdanken, dass die Universitätsklinik in Halle bis heute ein angesehenes Referenzzentrum für die Versorgung von Patientinnen und Patienten mit Muskelerkrankungen ist. 

Wir werden ihn und seinen Humor vermissen.
