Dr. Göbel is a visionary catalyst at the intersection of technology,
creativity, and medicine,
embodying the spirit of an inventor and
entrepreneur. Inspired by the synthesis of these disciplines, Dr. Göbel fosters a universe where human creativity, supported by technical precision, drives medical progress.This balanced triad not only
pioneers innovative treatment methods but also inspires new forms of
artistic expression and human interaction with technology. ______________________________________________________________
Right after finishing the basic medical training,I was strongly drawn to the “First German Clinic for Traditional Chinese Medicine” in Bad Kötzting, a teaching clinic of Peking University. The world of Traditional Chinese Medicine was fascinating to me; however,I did not want to rely on it alone.So I decided to continue my training at the University Hospital Regensburg. At the Regensburg University Hospital, my path developed toward clinical re- search and medical technology. Here I also made the invention that ultimately led to the “Mirocuff Endotracheal Tube”. ______________________________________________________________ My path then led me back to the University of Würzburg. There I greatly enjoyed re-starting a large,nationwide pharmaceutical study that had stalled. I worked as a “networker” among over 150 study centers, collecting data and spreading good humor and confidence a highlight of my life! the sponsoring company, Pfizer, eventually recognized me and recruited me for its Clinical Trials Planning and Monitoring department. At the same time, however, my startup for the production and marketing of the endo- tracheal tubes I had invented was already underway.____ ______________________________________________________________ The startup company was sold to Kimberly-Clark in 2005. This brought me back to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): From my share of the sale proceeds, I built a private practice in Würzburg. I operated this for over 15 years, translating the ancient philosophical mindset of TCM into my scienti- fic worldview. I understood and applied acupuncture,for example, as applied neuroanatomy. I found it fascinating that experience-based ancient acupunc- ture theory could expand our modern neuroanatomy! I continue pursuing this expansion in conjunction with Functional Anatomy and Philosophy today ...
The synthesis of technology, creativity, and medicine creates a
universe in which human creativity, supported by technical precision,
drives medical progress! This synergy not only leads to groundbreaking
treatment methods but also fosters new forms of artistic expression and
human interaction with each other and with technology. The balanced
triad of these aspects inspires!

Plato’s Philosophy
In his philosophy, particularly in works such as Phaedo or Republic,
Plato argues that there exists a higher, immaterial world of Ideas or
Forms. These Ideas are eternal, unchangeable, and perfect archetypes of
all things, which in the physical world exist only as imperfect copies. For example, the Idea of the “Good” or the “Beautiful” exists
independently of tangible objects.
Inventors have access to a higher, immaterial space of Ideas. The Spirit of Invention
Inventors or entrepreneurs are catalysts of society.
Existentialist Perspective
From an existentialist perspective, the entrepreneur can be understood
as someone who actively creates meaning. Sartre emphasizes that humans are “condemned to be free” and define their essence through their
actions. The entrepreneur embraces this freedom by creating structures through initiative and innovation that did not previously exist. Founding a company is an act of self-determination: the entrepreneur dares to create something from nothing—a product, a service, or a new
way of thinking. — Jean-Paul Sartre
Teamwork: A Social Science Approach
Teamwork can be regarded as an expression of communication and social action. Team- work requires communicative action, throuwhich people reach consensus and co- operation via rational discourse. It can also be seen as a space in which individual identi- ties unfold in relation to others. --- Hannah Arendt, Jürgen Habermas
Process Philosophy
Product development can be viewed as a dynamic process in which the
network is constantly evolving. The network is less static and more a
living structure of events. Every iteration, every test cycle, every
piece of feed- back transforms the network and, consequently, the product.
— Alfred Whitehead
