- Innovative Health Care Concepts and Regional Health Care
Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Neeltje van den Berg
In the research area "Innovative Healthcare Concepts and Regional Care" we deal with research questions how to improve and ensure regional healthcare, especially in rural areas. The focus is on geographic analyses, cooperation between healthcare professions, telemedicine and eHealth. Innovative healthcare concepts, e.g. in the areas of pediatrics, geriatrics and palliative care are implemented and evaluated in model regions.
The Integrated Telemedicine Center (IFT) is part of the research group. In cooperation with medical specialist, hospitals, and other health service providers, telemedical healthcare concepts are developed and implemented, e.g. for patients with mental disorders.
- Interprofessional Healthcare and Education (IPE)
Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Hoffmann
The research area “Interprofessional care and education” focusses on patient care in an interprofessional context aiming at facilitating optimal holistic and patient-centered health care. All medical and therapeutic professions involved in care are included. The healthcare research projects currently being carried out or applied for go beyond the previous standard care and aim at improving the existing care in interprofessional, cooperative teams. At the same time, teaching and learning concepts for training and further education are being developed addressing and promoting interprofessional cooperation in the long term.

- Medical Informatics/Data Integration
Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Dagmar Waltemath
The group of Prof Waltemath works to improve the management of
biomedical research data. It develops methods and tools for data integration, provenance, semantic enrichment and standardisation. A common goal is to make research data accessable, traceable and
comparable within the clinical domain and beyond. The mechanisms and data arising from the KAS+ projects form the basis for a continuous practical evaluation and further development of the methods developed in
this group.
