Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at the Kepler University Hospital

Kepler University Hospital is the second-largest hospital in Austria, serving a population of approximately 1.5 million people, and is the academic teaching hospital for the Johannes Kepler Medical University. Both institutions were founded just a few years ago – they are young, motivated and provide the perfect clinical training ground for new anesthesiologists and intensivists!

No matter what an anesthesiologist needs to train in, the Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine can offer it. This ranges from specific anaesthetic techniques to paediatric intensive care medicine and chronic pain services to (pre-hospital) emergency medicine. There’s also a diverse clinical spectrum for established anaesthesiologists who will find a wide range of fields to specialize in and help develop further. Such a young and dynamic hospital also provides an opportunity for state-of-the-art research, with research in artificial intelligence and machine learning being a major focus.

Kepler University Hospital's size and breadth of capabilities make it one of the best places to train, learn and research at the very highest level Europe has to offer.
