Nadine completed her Bachelor's degree in Socioeconomics at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. She went on to earn a Master's degree in Social and Organisational Psychology from the University of Exeter, where her thesis explored the psychological responses of cis-gendered individuals to pluralistic representations of gender in institutional forms. Currently, she is pursuing her PhD within the Addictive Disorders Research Group where she is working on the study "Züri Can – Cannabis mit Verantwortung" (engl. "Cannabis with responsibility") in collaboration with the City of Zurich. Her doctoral research focuses on the promotion of lower-risk cannabis use within the framework of regulated sales. A particular emphasis of her research interest lies in measuring participants' knowledge and behaviour regarding lower-risk cannabis use and comparing the influence of different sales regulations on participants' use behaviour.
