Currently, 13 working groups are active in the AKEK. They are teams of experts appointed by the General Assembly, most of whom deal with a specific topic. They keep an eye on the latest legal changes, prepare handouts for the work in the committees, as well as sample texts for applicants and sponsors.
Das Logo des Arbeitskreises zeigt den Kentauren Chiron, den Sohn der Nymphe Philyra und des Kronos. Chiron war der Lehrer des Asklepios (Aesculapius) und galt in der Antike als mythischer Schutzpatron der Medizin.
