Maximillian Faust
PROGRAMME: Doctorate in Health Studies
RESEARCH FOCUS: Hospital security during terrorist-related mass casualty incidents. My work asks how an emergency department keeps treating patients while the threat is still running, and how a hospital protects itself against a secondary attack on its own site. I benchmark countries with long experience of these incidents and develop a readiness framework and checklist for German emergency departments.
