Abstract
A few months into her neurology fellowship at the Ludwig-Maximilian University Hospital in her native Munich, Germany, Claudia Trenkwalder was told by a senior colleague to abandon any hopes of a research career in neurology. It was a man's field, he had told her, and she should focus on less demanding tasks. Sat at her desk, 25 years on, as the Clinical Director of the Centre of Parkinsonism and Movement Disorders at the Paracelsus-Elena Klinik in Kassel, Germany, a pioneer in the treatment of restless legs syndrome, and the president of the World Association of Sleep Medicine (WASM), she can afford a wry chuckle at her ex-colleague's misguided advice.
