At the Charité, our scientists and physicians engage in state-of-the-art research, patient care and education. More than half of the German Nobel Prize winners in medicine and physiology come from the Charité, among them Emil von Behring, Robert Koch and Paul Ehrlich. The Charité also has an international reputation for excellence in training. It extends over four campuses with more than 100 clinics and institutes bundled under 17 CharitéCenters. The Charité has a turnover of nearly 1 billion euros per year, and it is one of the largest employers in Berlin with 14,500 employees.
In 2010, the Charité will celebrate its 300-year anniversary and will do everything to make this historical event a memorable one.
