With a background in English Studies and Scandinavian Studies as well as time spent abroad working in Norway and Scotland, Alexander Eitner has been working at Karger Publishers since 2008. As a publication manager, he was in charge of publication planning, editorial office, and copyediting for the scientific journals VISCERAL MEDICINE and BREAST CARE, among work for other Karger journals and book publications. In 2019, Alexander joined the unit Healthcare Markets (HCM) as a Healthcare Publications Editor, focusing on reliable and easy-to-understand information for both patients and the general public. In his free time he enjoys spending time with his family, travelling/camping, reading as many books as possible, and music (sadly he doesn’t find the time any more to practice his sets of Scottish Great Highland bagpipes and Scottish smallpipes).
