After a tour of the grounds, the guests went from the Dean's Office to the new NCT building. This is where modern cancer therapy and cutting-edge research takes place. Other stops included the major new construction projects on the campus, such as the patient kitchen and the Center for Mental Health, as well as the Centers for Emergency Medicine and the Diagnostic-Internistic-Neurological Center.
President Dierks was impressively shown that cutting-edge medicine, excellent research and future-oriented teaching only work if there is reliable, binding and long-term support, including from Saxony's state politicians.
