About us
The Mat-Tech Lab (Mathematical Technologies Lab) is a vibrant interdisciplinary team composed by mathematicians, engineers, physicists, and neuroscientists working at the interface between the development of new technologies in healthcare (& beyond) and mathematics. The goal of the lab is to promote new innovations in the field of healthcare technologies while being able to re-adapt creatively the modeling frameworks used up to now. We value industrial partnerships and hybrid developments (across academia and industry).
