The main research focuses of the Faculty of Medicine are driven by scientists joining forces to advance their shared scientific topics and goals.
The strengths of these research partnerships have been reflected in the successful establishment of numerous third-party funded research networks. They have been supported by the creation of new professorships and research-related focal points in patient care at the University Hospital in Münster.
Clinical Translational Professorships, or CTPs, act as "hinges" between basic and clinical research. As such, they are intended to ensure that new findings are swiftly incorporated into patient care and vice versa, that new questions quickly find their way into clinical research.
The Medical Faculty of the University of Münster has already established a number of such professorships as it considers CTPs to be a key element in clinical translational research. Particularly when established in strong research-focused areas, they contribute significantly to the profile of the location. CTPs are part of a successful translational concept and an attractive target position for potential faculty career models.
