Magdeburg University Medicine receives major funding from the Network of University Medicine for AKTIN
As part of the new funding phase of the Network of University Medicine (NUM 3.0), funding has been approved for the nationwide infrastructure project AKTIN. Since 1 July 2025, the project will be funded in the network for a further five years with a total of 9.5 million euros. The Academic Medical Centre Magdeburg will receive 4.6 million euros from this to operate the AKTIN infrastructure and strengthen emergency, acute and intensive care medicine.
AKTIN has been part of the Network of University Medicine since 2020 with the AKTIN-EZV, AKTIN@NUM and AKTIN2.0 projects. Over 90 Emergency Departments are currently connected to the infrastructure and the emergency admission register. With the renewed funding, AKTIN will be firmly established as a NUM platform for acute, intensive and emergency medicine as an infrastructure in the NUM.
The AKTIN infrastructure serves as a nationwide platform for research and public health surveillance in emergency and acute medicine. It enables the daily updated, standardised and data protection-compliant use of routine clinical data from Emergency Departments - independent of local IT systems and across different locations. In addition, AKTIN develops central documentation and interoperability standards and provides the necessary technical and organisational infrastructure.
