After receiving her doctorate in 1965 at the University of Munich with a dissertation titled "Veränderungen des Sekretintestes bei subaciden, cholecystektomierten und pankreaskranken Patienten" (Changes of the secretin test in subacid patients after cholecystectomy and with pancreatic diseases)[2] she habilitated in 1972 at the Ludwig-Maximilian University with a treatise titled "Stimulation der TSH-Sekretion durch TRH (Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone): diagnostische Bedeutung und pathophysiologische Folgerungen" (Stimulation of thyrotropin secretion by TRH (thyrotropin releasing hormone): diagnostic utility and pathophysiological consequences). On January 18, 1973, she was appointed Privatdozent,[3] in 1979 Professor.[4]
During her scientific life Pickard managed a number of scientific conferences[5] and published more than 80 papers and several books on thyroid disorders and endocrine ophthalmopathy.[6][7][8] Together with Rudolf Fahlbusch she described a form of tertiary hypothyroidism in pituitary stalk transection syndrome (Pickardt-Fahlbusch syndrome).[9]
Since 2001 she has been an emeritus professor.
