Space to design. To build. To innovate.
The Hardware and Software Platform turns ideas into technologies that advance science and healthcare.
Working closely with researchers, the team designs and develops in-house hardware and software tailored to the needs of each project. By creating new experimental tools and setups, they help enable discoveries that would otherwise not be possible.
The platform also supports clinical activities by developing technologies, including robotic solutions, that reduce repetitive tasks and streamline workflows, allowing healthcare professionals to focus on what matters most: patient care.
By bringing together engineering, technology and scientific expertise, the Hardware and Software Platform drives innovation across the institution, providing the technical foundation that helps both research and clinical care move forward.
