Its own laboratory building with highly specialised "Core Facilities" was inaugurated in June 2010 with the "Anna Spiegel Research Building”.
Founded in 1365 as a Medical Faculty of the University of Vienna, the MedUni Vienna is now one of the world"s largest and most renowned medical universities.
As one of the most innovative medical universities in Europe, MedUni Vienna consistently strives to attract the brightest minds in order to further medical research, impart forward-thinking knowledge and ensure the best possible and most advanced care for patients.
The university management of MedUni Vienna consists of Rectorate, Senate and University Council. The Rectorate manages the business concerns of the Medical University of Vienna.

The Senate is made up of 13 representatives from among the University"s professors, six representatives of university teaching and research staff, one representative of the general university staff and six student representatives, either elected or appointed.
The Medical University"s collections on the history of medicine are unique in Europe. They represent the 650 years of this institution and its cultural heritage. The overall cultural heritage of the Medical University of Vienna is among the largest collections in the world and consists of many different areas - e.g. architecture, teaching materials, instruments, manuscripts, literature, archival material and images.
The early Classicist Josephinum, built in 1785 under Joseph II on Waehringer Strasse is the architectural highlight of the collections of MedUni Vienna. It has a special significance as the gateway to the history of medicine: Not just due to the historic, architectural and cultural value of the building and its original collections, but as an institution that administers, processes and conveys the entire historical holdings of MedUni Vienna.
The rich cultural heritage of MedUni Vienna stands out, because the holdings have evolved over many centuries and they are presented to the public through exhibitions. The building, designed by Isidor Canevale today houses the Museum for Anatomical Wax Models and, with the collections of La Specola in Florence, it is among the largest of its kind in Europe. The collections of the Josephinum are open to the public.
The Medical University of Vienna is a long-established international cutting-edge university for medicine and a research hub as well as an innovation driver for medical sciences – in the triad of the triple track of research, education and patient care.
