German to English translations [PRO]
Medical (general) / in correspondence from one doctor to another
German term or phrase: PH-FE
Complete context:
Dr. xxxxx
PH-FE Chemotherapie
Elberfeld

This is on medical-related correspondence under the name of the doctor that it is being addressed to. I believe that FE stands for R&D - but I do not know what the PH is for. I did find a reference to Pädagogische Hochschule but this does not seem to fit since the accompanying work deals with the manufacturing of pharmaceurticals and this would not be done in a hochschule - would it?

Clarification request(s) and response
RNolder (asker): 4:57pm Nov 5, 2004: Iknow that this probably refers to the department/ location at which the doctor works. However, I am looking for an English equivalent to these German acronyms and their meanings. TIA

Production Hall R&D

Explanation:
Ich fand PH in Verbindung mit Elberfeld, und gehe davon aus, dass es Produktionshalle bedeutet. Und du hast wahrscheinlich Recht mit R&D

04.11.2003 - Bayer weitet den Einsatz des Produktionsmanagementsystems PAS-X von Werum an seinem Standort Elberfeld aus. Im Mittelpunkt des Projektes steht die Realisierung eines papierlosen Electronic Batch Recording Systems (EBRS) für die "Produktionsstätte PH 5".
