organization
The eleven European metropolitan regions in Germany do not have any guidelines for internal structures. The manner of regional cooperation can therefore be adapted to the local structural conditions. The Nuremberg Metropolitan Region has opted for a decentralized and extremely democratic organizational structure. Internally, it is divided into six specialist forums, a steering committee and the council. Over 300 representatives from various areas of society - business, science, politics, administration, culture and sport - work on joint projects in the forums. The steering committee consists of representatives of the above-mentioned specialist forums and takes on tasks of strategic advice to the council, the actual decision-making body of the EMN. This consists of the mayors of the independent cities, the district administrators and the mayors of the most populous communities in the associated districts. Two members of the Bavarian state government , three state secretaries from Bavarian state ministries, as well as a district president and a district council president - representing all affected government and district councils - were co-opted.
Since the decision-making power lies entirely in the hands of elected political representatives, the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region is an institution of regional cooperation with a high degree of legitimacy . Due to the advisory effect of economic and cultural actors as well as the strong representation of rural areas, it is socially as well as geographically decentralized.
Treatment focus on cancer
The metropolitan region has been focusing on the treatment of the widespread disease cancer since 2013 . The German Cancer Aid has included the Erlangen University Hospital in the list of top oncological centers and is funding it with three million euros. The University Clinic Erlangen , the Clinic Bayreuth and the Social Foundation Bamberg are now jointly forming the Franconian Comprehensive Cancer Center of the European Metropolitan Region Nuremberg (CCC Erlangen - EMN).

Rail transport
The central station Nürnberg is the only station in the price category 1 in the metropolitan area is He is at the intersection of the. Inter City Express -lines 18 , 25 , 28 , 29 , 31 , 41 , 91 and the Inter City - and Euro City -lines 28 , 31 , 61 . These lines serve Nuremberg for the most part at hourly intervals, with line overlapping in some cases also resulting in denser clock frequencies. Almost all long-distance connections leading from Munich to the north are now bundled via the high-speed route to Nuremberg and are only divided here. This creates a dense cycle between the two cities even in long-distance traffic. With the completion of the high-speed route between Nuremberg and Leipzig , this relation and thus the connection to Berlin was also significantly accelerated. Long-distance trains also offer direct connections to the Rhine-Main and Ruhr areas , as well as to Stuttgart , Karlsruhe , Bremen , Hamburg and Passau and Vienna .
Other long-distance traffic stops in the metropolitan region are the stations of Ansbach , Bamberg , Coburg , Erlangen , Fürth , Kronach , Lichtenfels and Treuchtlingen .
