In order to document new results of their work in a transparent and verifiable way, and to share them with the professional community, researchers publish papers in professional media. The Faculty of Medicine awards a “Paper of the Month” as an example of the outstanding work by its researchers. The winners present their findings briefly and as comprehensibly as possible in words and images.
