Research profile
The Faculty of Medicine at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf focuses on a new balance between competition and cooperation among its priority research fields.
Following the concept of "coopetition" - the pairing of cooperation and competition - it promotes the collaboration of these research fields. This creates intersections in terms of content that enable innovation and knowledge transfer across disciplinary boundaries.
A modern research infrastructure supports this process of profile building at the University Medical Centre Düsseldorf.
