Hamburg, Germany – The nomination period for the prestigious Broermann Medical Innovation Award 2026 has officially begun. This international award, endowed with a million euros, is one of the most highly esteemed honors for medical research worldwide. The nomination portal will remain open until March 1, 2026.
Established in 2024 to honor the vision and commitment of Dr. Bernard große Broermann, founder of the Asklepios Kliniken Group, the Broermann Medical Innovation Award recognizes groundbreaking medical discoveries with high innovation potential for clinical application. This year marks the debut of the award, with the announcement of the recipient and the second official award ceremony set to take place in autumn 2026.
Scientists from around the world who have made pioneering contributions in medicine, biotechnology, or related fields are eligible for nomination. The award aims to recognize and support individual researchers whose work has a lasting impact on the lives and health of millions of people globally.
The official award ceremony, hosted by the Minister-President of Hesse, Boris Rhein, will take place on November 14, 2025, at the Hessian State Chancellery in Wiesbaden. The inauguration of the first Broermann Medical Innovation Award recipient will be announced on September 18, 2025, by the jury.
The Broermann Medical Innovation Award is organized through the University Hospital Gießen and Marburg (UKGM) and endowed by Broermann gemeinnützige GmbH. The award aims to reflect the founder’s belief that the impact of networks in medical research is limited without the individual contributions of key figures and drivers of innovation.
