At WEISS, engineers, clinicians and computer scientists work together to develop technologies that enable safer and more effective treatments for patients across a wide range of conditions.
We specialise in the fields of surgical and interventional sciences. This means either surgery, being operations where surgeons need to make some kind of cut, or incision to the patient, and interventions being cases where it’s able to do this without so.
We intend for these to underpin the next generation of medicine across a wide range of applications, making life-changing treatments safer and more accessible for patients.
Our Centre is based at Charles Bell House, a building that brings togetherÌýresearchers from departments within theÌý, such asÌý,ÌýÌý²¹²Ô»åÌý, and places them alongside clinical researchers from theÌýFaculty of Medical SciencesÌýand divisions such as theÌýÌý
This close, interdisciplinaryÌýintegration allows clinicians toÌýfeed in their experiences to inform the direction and design of research, creating engineering solutions with the applications firmly in mind. ItÌýhelps usÌýensure that innovationÌýis alwaysÌýdirected towards patient benefit.Ìý
