Here you will find an overview of all Collaborative Research Centers the Technical University of Munich is involved in.
The excellence cluster “SyNergy” investigates how complex neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis or Alzheimer's disease develop. Using systems neuroscience as a new interdisciplinary approach, researchers can map the many processes involved in neurodegenerative, neuroimmunological and neurovascular diseases. The cluster has been funded since 2012.
Participating Institutions: TUM, TUM University Hospital rechts der Isar, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich (LMU), LMU University Hospital, MPI for Neurobiology, German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), Helmholtz Center Munich, MPI for Biochemistry, MPI for Psychiatry
The Medical Informatics Initiative (MII) creates the conditions for research and medical care to move closer together. All of Germany's university hospitals are currently working together with research institutions, companies, health insurers and patient representatives to develop the framework requirements that will allow research findings to reach patients directly.
The MII aims to make the best possible use of the opportunities offered by digitization in medicine for healthcare and research. The BMBF is funding the consortia and the cross-consortia use cases with a total of over 400 million Euros during the establishment and networking phase (2018 to 2022) and the currently ongoing expansion and extension phase (2023 to 2026).
The MII is working closely with the Network University Medicine (NUM) to establish and expand digitization in medical research. At the Munich TUM site, the core tasks of the MII are coordinated within the DIFUTURE consortium.

| Prof. Dr. Daniel Rückert, Head of the Chair of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare and Medicine (2020) | As Head of the Chair of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare and Medicine, Prof. Dr. Daniel Rückert, a Humboldt Professor, combines the work of various research laboratories at the TUM's Schools of Medicine, Natural Sciences and Engineering and its clinics. Among other things, Prof. Rückert has significantly improved the quality of medical imaging with the help of artificial neural networks. Read more |
| Prof. Dr. Matthias Tschöp, Head of Metabolic Diseases (2012) | Prof. Dr. Matthias Tschöp, one of the world's leading researchers in the field of the two metabolic diseases diabetes and obesity, has been appointed to TUM. His research concerns the molecular transmission pathways that play a role in diabetes and insulin resistance. Prof. Tschöp thus occupies a key position in the National Health Center for Diabetes, in which TUM, together with the Helmholtz Center Munich, is setting a long-term research focus. Prof. Tschöp holds the first Humboldt Professorship awarded in the field of medicine. Read more |
