King's College London
In cooperation with the Faculty of Life Science and Medicine at King's College in London, the School of Medicine has established the first European transCampus. Researchers from both universities work together in a cross-border network and can thus make better use of each other's resources.

Scientists
There is a long-standing tradition of cooperation and exchange between scientists at the Carl Gustav Carus Medical Faculty and King's College London. Since 2015, these have been perpetuated in the transCampus network, a project for international research collaborations that is unique in Europe.
If you are interested in a research collaboration, please contact us.
The technology transfer of research results can be funded for project teams of scientists from both universities via the transCelerator.
We will be happy to answer any questions you may have about the transCelerator.
Young Scientists
Young scientists have the possibility of a binational doctoral program at the TU Dresden and King's College London. This is possible within the framework of the International Research Training Group "Immunological and Cell-Based Strategies in Metabolic Diseases".
If you are interested, please contact us.
On the other hand, there is a joint PhD program in Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience between the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King`s College London, the Medical Faculty Carl Gustav Carus and the Faculty of Psychology in the Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at TU Dresden. Further information can be found here: transCampus Mental Health.
Students
In the area of student exchanges, we were able to expand the successful sending of DAAD scholarship holders for a part of their clinical traineeship in the British capital in the past years. Detailed information on student exchanges with scholarships can be found on the student web pages.
In case of questions, the contact listed alongside will gladly assist you.
Staff
In cooperation with King's College, we offer opportunities for exchange with international colleagues in the context of project work or else for the purpose of professional or cultural exchange of at least two weeks. Making contacts, gaining insights into local structures and processes, and valuable knowledge transfer on best practices are just as much a part of the program as meeting the country and its people.
If you are interested, please contact us.
Life in London
London is the largest metropolis in Europe offers a large number of outstanding research institutions and a great variety of cultural sites. All important information about a stay in London can be found on the official website Visit London. Details about King's College are available on the official KCL website.
The newest Economist ranking compares the cost of living in London in the year of 2020 to that of Frankfurt (Main). The London School of Economics advises its future students to calculate about £1100 - £1300 per months to cover all expenses.
London is one of the world's most visited cities, which is due to the rich diversity in cultural and sports events. Throughout the year, exciting events take place in museums, parks but also in very extraordinary locations and all of them are announced in the city's event calendar. Major international sports tournaments in disciplines like soccer, tennis or rugby also take place all year round and are enlisted here. For those who would like to get to know London far for the popular sites, some of these hidden gemsmay be just right.
London's public transport is characterized by a large network of different means of transport, such as the world-famous Tube (subway) or even the double-decker buses. The whole variety of means of transport can be found here and current prices and connections can be found at any time on the official website of the local transport association Transport for London.
