the twente tour - 10 march
In the Twente Region, companies, regional healthcare institutions, insurers, patients and citizens work together to shape the future of health and wellbeing. At the heart of the MedTech Cluster in Twente is the all-new TechMed Centre on the campus of the University of Twente. Opened in November by King Willem Alexander of the Netherlands, the TechMed Centre’s mission is to improve healthcare by bringing together education, research and new business.
In the Regio Tour Twente, we demonstrate examples of personalized medicine where each patient’s unique characteristics lead to a targeted treatment approach specific to the individual person. You can see and experience new sensing systems that collect data on body movements, revolutionized robotic imaging and treatment tools, and 3D printed models for personalized surgical preparation.
The tour starts in the TechMed Centre, where you will be introduced to Twente’s thriving MedTech cluster. After that, you can choose one of two parallel tracks on smart technologies at home, including a visit to the eHealth House, BMS lab, Roessingh Research and Development Centre and TZA, or personalized medicine in oncology, with a tour through the TechMed Imaging lab and the joint 3D printing initiative from Medisch Spectrum Twente hospital and Saxion.
