The 4TU.Health centre is committed – from a strong, technological base - to connect knowledge and experience of the four Dutch universities of technology to contribute to effective solutions for societal challenges in the field of health and care.
Health relevant technologies
Within the universities of technology, a wide variety of innovative solutions for healthcare and healthy living is developed. It is necessary to form a clear picture regarding the added value of health-relevant technologies, for both patient and healthcare, so that we can create a system in which a well-fitted selection can be made of promising healthcare technologies. With this, the universities of technology aim to contribute to keeping our healthcare of good quality, accessible, affordable and sufficiently staffed.
4TU.Health as a strategic partner
Research, education and innovation are the core of the four universities of technology, which form 4TU. When it comes to these activities in the field of health and care, the universities of technology collaborate within the 4TU.Health centre. They emphasize the importance of technology in the transitions that we need to make our health and care systems future-proof. By joining forces 4TU.Health is a valuable strategic partner for governments and other organizations involved in research, innovation and education in the health domain.
