Students Showcase Excellence in Medical Research

During the UMFST-UMCH Days 2024, students had the opportunity to submit abstracts addressing research-relevant questions in medicine. Promoting research holds significant importance at UMFST-UMCH, and the Scientific Sessions held during the University Days contributed to supporting students in this field.

Students presented a variety of topics in short presentations at the Hamburg Campus auditorium, impressing the committees. Both clinical and pre-clinical committees evaluated the students’ work and announced the winners of the Scientific Sessions.

Congratulations to the following students for their outstanding achievements:

1st Place:

• Alessandro Aust with the topic: “Acetyl-L-Carnitine as a beneficial supplement against cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration”

• Katharina Kremmin with the topic: “Indications for labor induction in Germany: Clinical guidelines and reproductive outcomes”

2nd Place:

• Aurelio Pio Russo with the topic: “Utilizing artificial intelligence for automated Cobb angle measurement in scoliosis diagnosis and assessment”

• Charlotte Kuna with the topic: “Predictors of mortality in pulmonary sepsis”

3rd Place:

• Ivan Bergo with the topic: “Lipoxins: Potential therapeutic strategies in diabetic nephropathy”

• Juliana Sobral Gonçalves with the topic: “Medical student’s assessment of flow velocities and pulsatile index using transcranial Doppler on healthy subjects: Case series”

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Research Committee for their support and dedication.
