Clinical Traineeship

Clinical Traineeship at the University Department of Neurosurgery

Within the framework of a Clinical Traineeship (German-"Famulation" from Latin "famulus" = "assistant") at our clinic, students and future physicians have the opportunity to gain a deeper insight into the field of neurosurgery.
They will have the opportunity to participate actively in the outpatient and inpatient clinic and observe neurosurgical interventions.

We highly recommend having already completed Block 19 - Brain and Nervous System (N202).
