Our goal is to ensure that our patients receive the highest quality treatment, and our research activities are geared toward this goal. We combine biomedical fundamental research, clinical research, and healthcare to transfer research findings into innovative therapies quickly and responsibly. At the same time, we take advantage of the possibilities offered by the diverse research landscape at our disposal in Freiburg – including university departments as well as external research institutions. As just one of many examples, we cooperate closely with the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics.

We conduct research at the frontiers between medicine and the natural sciences and engineering, because we view interdisciplinary research and collaboration between institutions as the key to future advances in medicine.
