Institute for General Medicine at the University of Cologne
The Institute focuses on defining and shaping the role of the GP practice in climate change. To this end, we carry out high-quality research projects and develop and test innovative concepts for practices and consultations. The transfer of these findings to multidisciplinary education, training and continuing education as well as to society is an essential part of our work.
In our GP consultation hours, we provide regular GP care with care for acute and chronically ill people. In particular, we provide advice on preventive healthcare and the health effects of climate change.
