I represent a new and innovative field in the most traditional subject in medicine: Clinical Anatomy. A science without narrow specialty restrictions, fully multidisciplinary. My aim is to bring anatomical knowledge into the context of diagnostic and therapeutic (surgical) application. To translate basic research into clinical application. To teach science and clinical approaches.

I have experience in translating MedTech into clinical applications—also as an entrepreneur.

Milestones of my activities:
* The establishment of a worldwide renowned surgical training centre with 12 complete OR-settings on 2500+ square meter. Annually more than 2500 surgeons from all surgical disciplines take part in more than 100 international training courses.
* The establishment of a platform to use human bodies for research and development in the field of medical technology in an environment that ethically complies with the recommendations of the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA). More than 140 MedTech companies, medical societies and medical academies use the opportunity to test and develop medical products and surgical approaches on donated bodies.
* Pioneer work in the field of digitalisation of academic teaching and CME-certified continued education. An operating room has been connected to a professional tv-studio. More than 50,000 students, physicians and medical professionals registered for the digital, non-profit, series Sectio chirurgica.
* The establishment of a research institute for translational cellular biology on tissue and cell systems from animal models and human specimen. Four task groups, led by experienced biologists, biochemists and medical doctors, work in the fields of microscopy, ultrastructural analysis, molecular biology, biocompatibility and toxicity analytics.
* Developing and patenting of Aminolipin®, a novel and highly effective biocide. Aminolipin® has exceptional properties: It is low hazardous and easily biodegradable - but nevertheless a fully-fledged substitute for formaldehyde. Aminolipin® fixed bodies are ideal models for state-of-the-art surgical procedures such as MIC and robotic assisted surgery.
* Activity as entrepreneur. Spin-off of LICIT Solutions GmbH. Board member of the BioMedTech association, member of the evaluation board of the 4C Medical Innovations Incubator.
