The Steinbeis Transfer Center Human and Veterinary Medical Technology works with clinicians and researchers in human and veterinary medicine to develop diagnostic and therapeutic applications to market readiness. It is aimed at medical professionals who, amid their busy work schedules, want to implement their own ideas in compliance with the law without having to build up expertise in regulatory approval and development. The Transfer Center supports the entire innovation process — from identifying clinical needs to preparing grant and ethics applications to prototyping and marketing — and contributes practical, scientifically sound, and implementation-oriented expertise to this end.
