'Top technology for patients'
Technological science is the catalyst for innovation in healthcare. MIRA combines fundamental and applied research with clinical practice. This unique scientific path stimulates a successful application of fundamental concepts and enables healthcare to rapidly introduce new treatments. MIRA works closely with hospitals, the business community and governmental organizations, aiming to secure its leading position in Europe. |

Our multidisciplinary approach enables us to make innovative contributions across a wide spectrum within healthcare. MIRA’s research will result into the development of new techniques to repair damaged tissue, such as bone and skin. It helps to create drugs that are targeted in their effects and enables doctors to diagnose more effectively through the use of improved imaging techniques. Furthermore, MIRA offers patient-focused solutions in rehabilitation technology. |
