ThIMEDOP combines the technological strengths of our region in optics and photonics with the clinical focus of the UKJ in sepsis research and ageing research by developing technical, photonic-optical and clinical-experimental oriented methods and systems for early detection, diagnosis, therapy and rehabilitation. The Innovation Center is embedded in the profile lines of the FSU Jena Light and Life as well as in the research cluster Technical and Biomedical Assistance Systems of the TU Ilmenau. ThIMEDOP represents an anchor point as a comprehensive training and further education offer for university and technical college personnel.
ThIMEDOP provides a platform for a continuous professional dialogue between clinicians, scientists and industry to identify innovative technologies and procedures for diagnosis and therapy of, for example, strongly age-related diseases. The innovation centre serves to strengthen research along the value chain, starting with improving the possibility of designing and carrying out application-oriented joint research projects, through to prototyping, pilot studies and practical patient-related evaluation.
