Delft University of Technology (TU Delft)

The state of human health is evolving. In many countries people are enjoying longer lives.

But this increase in longevity is coupled with an increase in chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease which may have gone undiagnosed in the past. Emerging digital technologies offer the potential for more responsive, personalised healthcare.

At the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering (IDE), we bring a human-centered design approach to the domains of prevention, care and cure. We have a particular research interest in autonomous ageing, the patient care and the patient journey.

We are particularly interested in developing technical roadmap and strategies to implement technology in health system transformation.

TU Delft collaborates with one of the largest university hospital in the Netherlands, Erasmus University Medical Center (Erasmus MC) through the convergence program:https://convergence.nl/nl/
