University Medical Centre Freiburg

Overcoming boundaries - in research, medicine and teaching

As a centre of high-performance medicine, the University Medical Centre Freiburg combines research, teaching and patient care in order to offer patients treatment based on the latest scientific findings.

Research

The university's scientific work is aimed at the responsible and rapid introduction of new therapies that can save lives and preserve quality of life. The University Medical Centre Freiburg stands for short paths from innovation to application. The basis for this is the close collaboration between researchers and doctors, regardless of subject or profession.

Prof Frederik Wenz Zitat

"The city of Fribourg not only offers an attractive quality of life for our employees, but also an inspiring environment for research and innovation. This is an important basis for quality-centred, cutting-edge university medicine."

Medicine

Every day, a broad-based team of specialists is at work to provide patients with healthcare that meets the latest standards of quality-centred, cutting-edge university medicine. The University Hospital crosses disciplinary boundaries in order to offer the best possible individualised treatment.

Teaching

Short distances also determine the transfer of knowledge. The broad organisation of the University Hospital offers junior medical staff virtually limitless opportunities to expand their knowledge. Interdisciplinarity is demanded and practised right from the start.
