My Master of Medical Education degree from 2006 to 2008 was the starting point for a series of innovations in teaching, which I have researched intensively with my team. The focus of my work is on the acquisition of clinical reasoning skills, digital teaching/learning formats, the impact of examinations on learning behaviour and processes, and teaching evaluation. As a clinician, I know the challenges that teachers face at a maximum care hospital. That is why we develop our teaching concepts in close consultation with the teaching staff.
