AI in medicine

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.

Andrea Volkamer studied bioinformatics at Saarland University, followed by a one-year research stay at Purdue University (USA). After her doctorate at the University of Hamburg with a focus on computer-aided drug design, she worked at the BioMedX Innovation Center Heidelberg as a PostDoc on methods for developing selective kinase inhibitors. From 2016-2022, she led a research group for structural bioinformatics and in silico toxicology at the Institute of Physiology at Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin as a junior professor. Since Aug. 2022, Andrea Volkamer has held a professorship at Saarland University in the field of "Data Driven Drug Design".

At the AI Campus, Mike Bernd coordinates the area of learning programs. Previously, he worked as a Quality Assurance Manager at Kiron Open Higher Education and as an Instructional Designer at HAW Hamburg. During his time as Deputy Project Manager at the University of Shanghai for Science & Technology, he developed hybrid course formats in the context of digitalised teaching. Mike Bernd studied, among other subjects, social and cultural anthropology at Freie Universität Berlin and sinology at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
