Charité – University Medicine Berlin
The House of Representatives passed the preliminary law to the law on the restructuring of university medicine in the state of Berlin. It came into force on June 1, 2003. At this time, the medical faculty of the Free University of Berlin and the medical faculty of the Humboldt University of Berlin were merged into one faculty of the new Charité affiliated body. The faculty includes all institutions involved in teaching and research with the academic tasks of human medicine and dentistry.
