If you're interested in a (German) BSc program in Health Information Management, where you'll learn about the intricate connections between IT, management, and medicine, check out our homepage!

Funny StackOverflow achievements:

• Winner of the gold Java badge despite never having written a single program in this language. (Being a regex one-trick pony pays off in unexpected ways :))
• Winner of the Populist badge for an answer that outscored another answer by myself
• Sole owner (at least from May 2013 to November 2016) of the regex-negation badge
