In the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG) are Medical Faculty of the Georg-August University and the University Hospital (UKG) are summarized. With around 1,520 beds, the clinic represents a central focus in health care in the southern Lower Saxony region. With around 7,700 employees, UMG is also the largest employer in the region.
Health care
The University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), the maximum care provider, treats around 65,000 inpatients and around 220,000 outpatients every year (as of 2016). The UMG is the location of the rescue helicopter Christoph 44 . Health care works closely with research and is organized around three cross-cutting themes: precision medicine, age-stratified medicine and integrative medicine.
research
The neurosciences as well as the areas of the cardiovascular system and oncology have developed as the - also internationally important - research focuses . Several research-active departments and third-party funded joint projects, such as the DFG Research Center Molecular Physiology of the Brain (CMPB), as well as a large number of Collaborative Research Centers, Graduate Schools, junior research groups and other national and international research networks make a significant contribution to research in the above-mentioned areas.
The cooperation between the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG) and the natural science faculties of the university, the Max Planck Institutes and the German Primate Center (DPZ), which has been intensified in recent years, is of outstanding importance. This led, among other things, to the establishment of several interdisciplinary institutions such as the European Neuroscience Institute (ENI-G), the Institute for Multiple Sclerosis Research (IMSF), the Göttingen Center for Molecular Biosciences (GZMB), the research group for MR research in neurology and psychiatry as well as the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience and the Center for Neurobiology of Behavior (ZNV).
Furthermore, Göttingen is one of the locations of the German Center for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK) and the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE). In addition, the European "excellence project" EUTrigTreat for the research and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias is coordinated in Göttingen. In October 2018, the Cluster of Excellence “Multiscale Bioimaging” was also approved, the focus of which is interdisciplinary biomedical research with high-resolution imaging methods.
Study and teaching
Measured by the number of students, the Medical Faculty of the University of Göttingen is one of the largest medical faculties in Germany. Around 260 students enroll in medicine , forty in dentistry and around forty per year in the international molecular medicine course at the University of Göttingen.
Twenty places are available annually for the international Master’s degree in Cardiovascular Science. All in all, including the 27 teaching hospitals, 190 professors and around 200 private lecturers participate in the teaching. A total of over 3,600 students are enrolled. In 2008 there were 3,096 students in medicine and 503 in dentistry. Around ten percent of the students come from abroad.
