MeetUp Technology and Participation in Regensburg: The Future of Limb Replacement at Degginger

High-tech, Participation, and Moving Stories at the Degginger

On July 10, 2026, the Degginger in Regensburg will become a stage for a MeetUp that closely intertwines medicine, technology, and human experience. At MeetUp Technology and Participation: The Future of Limb Replacement, the focal point is how modern prosthetic care functions today and what perspectives bionic technologies open for tomorrow.

When Medicine Becomes a Narrative of the Future

The format does not rely on a classic frontal lecture but offers an illustrative, personal perspective. At the center is the story of Janine Piller, who lost her left arm in a motorcycle accident and was cared for at UKR. Together with experts from medicine, orthopedic technology, research, and psychology, a multifaceted event experience is created that brings expertise and audience mood into an exciting dialogue.

Bionic Prostheses Between High-tech and Everyday Life

Visitors experience how prosthetic care has evolved from initial care through surgical innovations to myoelectric high-tech prostheses. The evening makes visible how strongly technology, body image, stigmatization, and social participation are interconnected. This is precisely the unique strength of this MeetUp: It combines medical expertise with a clear target audience appeal for everyone interested in science, health, and inclusion.

An Evening for the Curious, Professionals, and the Community

The Degginger is an ideal venue for this topic. The house is a space for creativity, culture, and innovation, mostly accessible without barriers, equipped with step-free access via Tändlergasse, an elevator, accessible toilets, and support options. Thus, the event becomes not only topically but also organizationally a strong example of contemporary event planning.

Participation with a Social Atmosphere

Following the content part, an open, communal wind down awaits. According to preliminary information, there will be free Pinsa and then a rave format featuring the Regensburg DJ collective Veluna. Here, concentrated science communication meets a relaxed, modern event atmosphere that extends the evening beyond the lecture.

Conclusion

This MeetUp brings cutting-edge medical technology right into the city and makes the future tangible. Anyone interested in prostheses, participation, research, and human stories should not miss this date at the Degginger. An evening with depth, exchange, and a strong focus on the medicine of tomorrow.
