This
year's Doctors' Ball is dedicated to an important Austrian pioneer of medicine: Karl Landsteiner. The Nobel Prize winner is
considered the "father of immunohaematology" thanks to his groundbreaking discoveries in the field of blood group serology,
which laid the foundation for modern transfusion medicine and thus saved millions of lives.

The ball will also open with pieces from the Strauss operetta "Wiener Blut", danced by the Europaballett.
The ball donation, a hand art print in an edition of 3,500, was created this time by students of the University of Applied
Arts and was also inspired by the work of Karl Landsteiner. It takes up the tradition of artistically designed ball donations
in a new form. Visitors to the ball will take home a unique and collector's item as a souvenir from the ball
