Course 10: Innovations in Molecular Medicine and Clinical Case Presentations 

(Klinische Fallpräsentationen und Innovationen der molekularen Medizin)

The Summer Academy consists of a two weeks' stay in Northern Italy and offers intensive seminars in combination with an attractive leisure program for talented and motivated students.

The course for medical students is titled “Innovations in Molecular Medicine and Clinical Case Presentations”.

The number of participating students is limited to 15; these students are selected according to their qualification. Only top medical students get selected and are allowed to participate.

There are three professors: the two from TUM/University of Erlangen who organize and lead the course, and one american visiting professor:

The language of the course is English.

The course program consists of lectures given by each of the 15 participants (either a presentation of a clinical case or about a certain subject in molecular medicine) and lectures given by the teaching professors. The presentation style follows principles of US Medical Schools (POL, PBL).

As the Summer Academy is sponsored by companies and associations, the students don't have to pay for accomodation/full board and transport.

The setting of the Summer Academy is Sarntal, Northern Italy. The hotels are located right in the mountains. For that, the second part of the Summer Academy consists of wonderful hiking tours- at least one day's hike together with the other courses and two or more half day's hikes.

Altogether, the Summer Academy is a very attractive combination of Academy and Summer Holiday….
