In Vitro Diagnostics

1. History and mission

The thematic platform in-vitro diagnostics (TP IVD) promotes technological innovation in the area of in-vitro diagnostics by providing access to a network of experts. This new national collaborative platform also supports project ideas by providing seed money. The TP IVD further enables the translational research by organizing events and company visits. The offer of the platform is further strengthened by national and international collaborations with other networks and organizations.

The TP IVD unites key stakeholders from industry, medicine and research organizations to combine excellent skill sets ranging from molecular biology, biochemistry, micro-/nanotechnology and bio-analytics, miniaturization, automation, data management as well as to regulatory affairs and health economics.

The platform has been founded in 2015.
