Helmholtz Biomedical Engineering
Engineering future health - from early detection to precision care
Our Mission
Helmholtz Biomedical Engineering connects Helmholtz Centers, research institutions, universities, hospitals, industry and additional stakeholders across research fields. The initiative’s ambition is to accelerate the transfer of new discoveries and technologies into health solutions. With Biomedical Engineering concepts at its core, it fosters pioneering solutions for the earlier detection, targeted prevention and individually tailored therapies of human diseases.
Thriving on a first cohort of funded projects (below), the current emphasis is to position Biomedical Engineering
- as crucial enabler of translation
-
and distinct scientific discipline
The HelmholtzMunich based coordination unit aims to
- establish a national biomedical engineering community
- create opportunities for collaboration and exchange
- identify, explore and facilitate future sources for funding
