Bibliography of Prof. Dr. med. Volker Vielhauer

​

I received my undergraduate medical training in Munich (Technische Universität and LMU), at the

University of Birmingham (UK) and the National Institute of Neurology, London, and qualified as an

MD in 1996. I completed a Residency in Internal Medicine and Fellowships in Nephrology and later

Rheumatology at the LMU Hospital, becoming board-certified in these specialties. Since 2007, I serve

as Consultant Nephrologist at the LMU Hospital. I earned my doctoral degree at the Institute of

Pathology of the LMU in 2000. Subsequently, I pursued a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the

Center of Excellence in Vascular Biology at Brigham and Women`s Hospital and Harvard Medical

School, Boston, from 2002 to 2004. After having returned to the LMU Hospital I became a translational

research group leader in the Nephrology Division, received my Habilitation in 2006 and subsequently

progressed to Associate Professor. I am a Senior Lecturer in Nephrology and Rheumatology, and

coordinate all undergraduate Nephrology teaching at the LMU Hospital.
