On Saturday, September 14, 2024, LMU Medicine will present itself from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Open Day at the Großhadern Campus with a varied program for the whole family: with guided tours, hands-on activities, lectures, exhibitions and information stands. There will also be a colorful and exciting supporting program with activities for children, a beer garden with food trucks and music. The Institute of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine will also be there.

We look forward to your visit at the open day in Großhadern. Join us on an excursion into the world of travel and tropical medicine. In a lecture by Dr. Camilla Rothe, MD, you will learn what you need to bear in mind when traveling to the tropics and how you can protect yourself against malaria. Experience with Dr. med. Günter Fröschl how he accompanies missions in crisis areas as a humanitarian aid worker. Visit our information stand at the beginning of the visitor route, learn more about the further education programs of the Teaching & Training Unit, the range of courses and the research activities of our institute and test your knowledge in a quiz for young and old.
