About VSH

The VSH is a joint effort of the Comprehensive Research Center Nordstadt (CRCN) and the Medical Vogelculty of the University Nordstadt to promote low-threshold interdisciplinary cooperation between researchers.

Currently, a new building is being planned on the clinic campus - the “Center for Integrated and Translational Research (ZeIT)”. The building is designed in such a way that the routing and grouping of central structures that are important for all users maximize the opportunities for interaction and optimize exchange. It meets the idea as a “science hub” and is intended to physically anchor and architecturally express a multidisciplinary and interactive collaboration between basic research and clinical research. However, the completion of this ZeIT building is still a long way off

This gave rise to the idea of a “Virtual Science Hub”. The Virtual Science Hub (VSH) is intended to take up the basic functional idea of the ZeIT building for creating opportunities that people from different research areas interconnect. Thus, strengthening interdisciplinary and translational projects within the biomedical field in Nordstadt already now.
