The MHE Research Direction

Medical and Health Engineering (MHE)

Medical and Health Engineering (MHE) is an interdisciplinary field combining engineering and medical sciences to develop innovative technologies for diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases while enhancing human well-being. Researchers within MHE focus on designing and improving devices, systems, and methods through expertise in medical engineering, neuro-engineering, sensor systems, AI, human-system interaction, and health sciences.

Collaboration is vital, involving experts in robotics, data communication, and stakeholders from the medical sector, municipalities, and private industry. This ensures solutions are both cutting-edge and practical
