Developing innovative approaches and technologies for the delivery of advanced therapies and diagnostics

Today’s advancements in medical imaging and devices allow unprecedented precision and minimally invasive access to almost every part of the human body. However, these techniques are often underutilized for both conventional and emerging advanced therapies and diagnostics. IRIS seeks to bridge this gap by fostering a collaborative environment that brings together scientists, engineers, physicians, healthcare providers, and industry partners. By forming these interdisciplinary teams, IRIS will develop unique and innovative solutions that augment Precision Diagnosis and Precision Delivery approaches across all medical fields – this ranges from health maintenance to disease treatment and even tissue regeneration and replacement. At IRIS, we aim to provide resources for faculty and industry partners, ranging from consultation advice on how best to translate current and emerging technologies and therapies into living subjects, to preclinical testing and validation of new approaches and devices, all the way to clinical trial implementation in both pediatric and adult patients.
