[Structured Career Pathways in the University Medicine - From Promotion to Clinician Scientist Programs].

Scientifically active medical doctors are required for successful translation of novel basic findings into the clinic. However, there is an increasing tendency of young medical doctors to primarily follow a more clinically and not scientifically orientated career pathway. Therefore, the establishment of novel career education structures and career perspectives in university medicine are important to stop this development. Here, we will discuss the current situation and ongoing attempts to design novel structural programs that allow a better combination of clinical and scientific work by highlighting also current developments at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Freiburg. Ohne wissenschaftlich aktive Medizinerinnen und Mediziner gibt es keine erfolgreiche klinische Forschung. Aber: Das Interesse des medizinischen Nachwuchses an einer wissenschaftlichen Laufbahn lasst nach. Neue Ausbildungsstrukturen und bessere Karriereperspektiven in der Universitatsmedizin sollen helfen, dieser Entwicklung entgegenzuwirken. Ein Beispiel fur deren Umsetzung ist das Ausbildungsmodell der Medizinischen Fakultat Freiburg.
