New building for trauma research at the University of Ulm

The new research building "Multidimensional Trauma Sciences" at the University of Ulm for over 200 scientists strengthens top research in the country.

Finance Minister Dr. Danyal Bayaz On Monday, October 11, 2021, Dr. Hans Reiter together with the head of the Ministry of Science the foundation for the new Research building Multidimensional trauma sciences (Mtw) placed. Finance Minister Dr. Danyal Bayaz said: "A trauma can meet everyone at any time. That is why trauma research is so important. With the excellent new building, we strengthen top research in the country. The new center offers researchers from medicine and natural sciences."

Science Minister Dr. Hans Reiter said: "The University of Ulm internationally occupies an undisputed top position in trauma research, which lives from many years of experience and high competence. The planned interdisciplinary cooperation In new research, not only the trauma science itself, but also the Ulm location and its biomedical research landscape.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Michael Weber, President of the University of Ulm: "Ulm trauma research is internationally recognized and is one of the strategic development fields of the university.
