Abstract
Since 1951, Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings have promoted scientific exchange between laureates and young researchers across generations and cultures. In 2018, the conference on Lake Constance focusing on "Physiology/Medicine" brought together 39 Nobel Laureates and 600 young scientists from 84 countries. This empirical contribution illustrates added value that the extraordinary offer of knowledge and experience by so many Nobel Laureates has for young participants, institutes and disciplines, and it provides reflection.
