Collaboration in the AG Young DOG
Dear colleagues,
The AG Young DOG is aimed at young assistant doctors and young scientists. Its aim is to enable a better compatibility of clinical work, research and family.

You are welcome to actively contribute to improving the research map for young junior scientists and become a member of the AG Young DOG by registering for the working group in the next step.
Membership of the AG is reserved for members of the DOG. Residents, habilitated physicians and scientists as well as professors up to W 2 can become members.
