Welcome to the Medical Faculty of the University of Bonn
We are 1 of 7 faculties of the University of Bonn and affiliated to the transdisciplinary research area Life and Health. We maintain extensive partnerships with institutions of the Helmholtz Association, the Max Planck Society, and national and international research associations in the life sciences.
We are committed to outstanding, nationally and internationally visible translational research from basic sciences to patient care, as well as to teaching and training students closely linked to science to become competent and empathetic physicians.
Both tasks are fulfilled in close cooperation with the University Hospital and with respect for our employees.

The 2026 “Sustainability in the Lab” Training Series begins in May
How can waste separation be implemented sustainably in the lab? What role can IT infrastructure play in resource-efficient research? And what specific opportunities do the University and the UKB already offer for conducting research in a more sustainable manner?
Fat cells play key role in avoidance learning
If humans or animals eat something that causes them to feel unwell, they subsequently avoid this food source. Until now, it has been unclear precisely how this avoidance learning takes place. A new study shows that communication between the brain cells and fat cells could play a crucial role here. The participants from the Universities of Bonn and Tohoku (Japan) and University Hospital Bonn have revealed the previously unknown mechanism in the fruit fly Drosophila. It may also exist in a similar form in mammals and even in humans. The results have now been published in the journal Neuron.
