De Universiteit Twente - TechMed Centre is de plek waar baanbrekend onderzoek en innovatie tot leven komen en waar samenleving, medische professionals en experts in zorgtechnologie samenkomen. Door een dynamische mix van workshops, conferenties en symposia creëren we kansen om te leren, samen te werken en de grenzen van medische innovatie te verleggen.
Er staan spannende evenementen op de agenda die kennisdeling, geavanceerde technologie en interdisciplinair samenwerken samenbrengen. Of je nu de nieuwste ontwikkelingen wilt ontdekken, ideeën wilt uitwisselen met koplopers uit de industrie of deel wilt uitmaken van de toekomst van de zorg, er is voor iedereen iets te vinden.
Een opvallend voorbeeld is de TechMed Research Day, een evenement vóór en dóór UT-onderzoekers en studenten in de gezondheidszorg, met inspirerende presentaties over innovatieve projecten en volop ruimte voor samenwerking en kennisuitwisseling. Het jaarlijkse TechMed Event biedt een platform voor MedTech-professionals en vernieuwers om baanbrekende doorbraken en toepassingen te presenteren. Beide evenementen stimuleren vooruitgang in de gezondheidszorg.
Aankomende events
Aankomende MedTech-gerelateerde evenementen zijn uiterst waardevol en inspirerend. Ze brengen belangrijke betrokkenen samen om impactvolle ontwikkelingen te presenteren en samenwerking te stimuleren. Of ze nu worden georganiseerd door interne teams of externe partijen – vaak TechMed-partners – deze bijeenkomsten bevorderen kennisdeling en versnellen de vooruitgang binnen het MedTech-ecosysteem, wat bijdraagt aan het bredere innovatieklimaat.

- 25 Mar | MedTech Twente Twente: AI in healthcare: is there (still) a doctor in the room?
The potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is promising. There are countless AI applications, and the healthcare sector can no longer afford to ignore them. However, how can one differentiate between the hype and the actual impact? Successfully deploying AI necessitates more than just intelligent algorithms—it also demands transparency, reliability, and a practical approach. What opportunities and pitfalls exist for entrepreneurs, innovators, and healthcare professionals? Is it merely a distant memory, or have data and AI applications already become integral to daily healthcare practice? In this session, we will explore the rapidly evolving landscape of AI in healthcare, with experts providing an honest and critical behind-the-scenes look.
AI is a branch of computer science specifically focused on creating systems that can perform human-like tasks. These tasks include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, and decision-making. Domains in health care where AI can be applied include medical diagnostics, treatment purposes, and outbreak prediction.
During this session, Tom Heskes (Professor of Data Science at Radboud University), Marnix Zoutenbier (CTO of Demcon Data-Driven Solutions), and Wouter Bulten (Chief Innovation Officer of Aiosyn) will discuss the potential of AI in healthcare, what to consider, and how to start taking the first steps.
