Periodic Reporting for period 1 - TWINNIMS (Increasing the scientific excellence and technological innovation capacity in Functional Materials for Medical Devices and Robotics of the University of Tartu) Reporting period: 2019-11-01 to 2021-01-31 Summary of the context and overall objectives of the project Estonia’s University of Tartu will receive a big boost in the research of functional materials for medical devices and robotics, especially in terms of minimally invasive and wearable medical robotics. It will strengthen its capacity for scientific excellence in this field through exchanges of competences and resources with leading European partners like the Italian Institute of Technology and the Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics and Nanotechnology at the French National Center for Scientific Research. The EU-funded TWINNIMS project will enable the collaboration. The project will allow the exchange of working visits, mentoring, technology transfer, joint activities and will boost innovation capacities. Work performed from the beginning of the project to the end of the period covered by the report and main results achieved so far We have organized 2 day hackathon Feb 2020 in Tartu where all partners participated. it was huge event with more than 100 participants in totalServeral training visits from UTARTU to IIT took place Progress beyond the state of the art and expected potential impact (including the socio-economic impact and the wider societal implications of the project so far) ...
