Convergence for Health & Technology
Erasmus University Rotterdam, Erasmus MC and TU Delft will bring together their staff, students, data and infrastructures to create a transdisciplinary ecosystem, with the collective aim to shape the future of health(care).
Mission
We are convinced that the healthcare challenges require a completely different approach than we have applied so far. We are going to tear down the boundaries between the alpha, beta, gamma and medical sciences and institutions, and will combine all our scientific strengths, (tacit) knowledge and methods to realise a thriving ecosystem where staff, students, society, government and industry realize a stimulating and efficient cross-pollination between their ideas, procedures, instruments and products to create the future of health and healthcare.
Vision
Create an inspiring and supporting environment where medical, engineering, and education professionals of all levels can come into contact with each other resulting in cross-pollination between their ideas, procedures, instruments and products.
Blend existing learning environments, disciplines and programs for convergent initiatives with novel educational content and form. Incorporate continuous learning growth for all students, instructors and researchers.
