Description du projet
Cracovie, foyer d’un nouveau centre européen pour la médecine informatique
Le dépistage informatique représente un domaine technologique à l’évolution rapide. Il traite les modèles et les algorithmes statistiques pour analyser les jeux de données sur la génomique à grande échelle à des fins diagnostiques et prognostiques. En détectant les schémas prédisposant à des entités spécifiques, il s’avère indispensable pour la prévention, le diagnostic et le traitement de certaines maladies. Le projet Sano, financé par l’UE, créera un centre européen pour la médecine informatique à Cracovie, en Pologne. Il stimulera et guidera le développement de nouvelles méthodes de soin de santé et de diagnostic par le biais d’approches innovantes personnalisées pour le traitement du patient. Ces nouvelles méthodes émergentes réduiront les coûts et amélioreront l’efficacité thérapeutique. Ce nouveau centre stimulera la connaissance et facilitera le transfert des technologies et des connaissances dans l’ensemble du secteur.
Objectif
This proposal describes the creation in Kraków, Poland, of a centre for Computational Medicine. The Centre will be a major driver for European advancement in this rapidly growing sector, developing sophisticated engineering methods for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease, and meeting the overarching worldwide need for radically streamlined healthcare systems.
The Centre’s area of operation will be computational medicine:
(1) Clinician-led activity can be radically reduced by migrating the majority of routine clinical assessments toward computationally-driven
(2) Entirely new approaches to disease diagnosis and management follow the development of novel computed biomarkers of disease, personalised to the individual patient, and typically leading to dramatically reduced costs.
The Centre will combine expertise in machine-learning based decision science with fundamental biomarker identification using advanced simulation and data analysis methods.
The Centre will act as a core technology provider for industry, fostering modernisation, innovation and increasing productivity, and additionally it will act as a catalyst, attracting new investment and businesses. It will provide an essential link between computational, medical sciences and the industrial sector, thus fostering knowledge and technology transfer and accelerating innovation.
The Centre is to be established in Kraków because of several local advantages with regard to the education and research infrastructure, the high concentration of research hospitals and a dynamic entrepreneurial community in life sciences, so being embedded in a highly dynamic and competitive ecosystem
The Centre will provide a fully sustainable mix of three advanced technical services, loosely categorised as education, project participation and industrial product development, with these three strands ultimately contributing approximately equally to the Centre’s income stream.
