TechMed Summer meeting (Internal event)

this is an internal TechMed event

Registration will close on Thursday 27 June 17.00. If you still want to join the event, send us an email. 

The summer meeting

Come and join us on the second TechMed Summer Meeting!

This year’s program will be kicked-off with the parallel sessions from the five TechMed’s Research domains. Join your research domain to hear about the latest developments in your field of Bioengineering, Biorobotics, Imaging & Diagnostics, Health, Well-being & Technology or Medical Physiology. Get inspired & share your views on the domain’s vision, mission and strategy!

In the afternoon, we organize the one and only TechMed ThinkTank. The goal is to come up with disruptive solutions to improve a patient’s life (a case will be presented). Therefore, all TechMed colleagues will be mixed into multidisciplinary teams of research, education, support and management staff members. Think outside the box and use the skills, knowledge, experience and personal qualities of all team members to solve your case and win this year’s Summer Meeting Prize!

The day concludes with a BBQ and Twente’s biggest Escape Room!
