Key Research Area: Health and well-being
Aalto University’s expertise in health and well-being is broad-based, with strong clusters of research groups such as in medical devices, health AI, neuroscience, and care-facility architecture.
H&W Devices and Related Methods and Analytical Tools
This cluster is a subarea of Aalto University’s Health and Wellbeing (H&W) expertise and includes research and development on wide-ranging medical and wellbeing devices.
The area encompasses medical and wellbeing devices, including many types of biosensors. The scale of the devices includes all from macro to smaller, encompassing technologies such as microelectromechanical systems.
Imaging and neurological devices represent notable subclusters of expertise within this cluster. While electrical devices comprise the majority of our focus, the area also includes research and development on macro-scale mechanical devices such as surgical instruments and artificial joints.
Professors in the area are from a multitude of complementary backgrounds, including physics, electrical engineering, biology, the medical sciences, and mechanical engineering.
