The close-knit business and research network, as well as the densely concentrated research landscape, are one of the strengths of the capital region. For example, Berlin is a thriving clinical trials location, due to its proximity to Europe’s largest teaching hospital, Charité. Employment is also available in more than 20 universities and non-academic research facilities and institutions. Begin your job search now! It will be worth your while.
