The Young Forum

The Young Forum is the committee for assistant doctors in the DGG. Among other things, its members plan sessions specifically for colleagues in further training and students participating in the MaGiC campaign for each annual conference. As representatives of the young members, they work together with the board and commissions on the DGG's strategy and the further development of the field. Anyone who would like to join is very welcome.
