Being Awarded is an “External Stimulus” for Young Researchers

Being Awarded is an “External Stimulus” for Young Researchers

NOV 8 2020

Prof. Reinhold Kerbl, MD, PhD, is the Head of the Paediatric Department at the Leoben Regional Hospital, Austria, the Secretary General of the Austrian Society of Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, and one of the leading specialists in the field of children’s medicine in the German-speaking world.

He has been a member of the IMA expert panel for six years and is performing research by himself. He considers such a contest a very significant one, a kind of an “external stimulus for young researchers and a good opportunity to present their work to public,” as he put it in his own words. Research has always been a very important part of his work, because (only) research brings knowledge forward. Living in Austria, Prof. Kerbl considers the conditions for research in this country quite good, but unfortunately not ideal.

His research interests include preventive medicine, sleep disorders, autonomic disorders, sudden infant death syndrome, thermoregulation and many more areas, and for some of them he has also received numerous awards, e.g. the Austrian Cancer Foundation Award and the Austrian Society of Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine Prize for the highest ranked scientific paper.

Currently, he is studying the role and development of genetics as the primary focus in the field of paediatrics, and he sees paediatrics as one of the leading disciplines as far as novelties and research are concerned.

Although research is a very important part of Prof. Kerbl’s work, direct personal contact with patients and families is still the most satisfying aspect for him. On the other side, a lot of administrative work that needs to be done is frequently an unpleasant burden.

Without a shred of doubt he would choose paediatrics again for his career, although his daily routine is very busy and demanding. He benefits from huge and generous support of his wife.

Beside family, his leisure time is mostly dedicated to sports (skiing, tennis and football) and music (guitar, piano and singing).
