Organization

Fraunhofer MEVIS’s interdisciplinary focus incorporates medicine, science, and industry, reflecting the institute’s operating principles and organizational structure. Researchers are not bound to strict, hierarchically organized work groups; they function in a flexible work environment that consists of medically defined domains and technologically oriented focuses which together dynamically adapt to the demands of research and development. This form of collaboration promotes cooperation between researchers for current projects and facilitates putting synergies into practice. This fosters the exchange of application-specific expertise and allows researchers to introduce their own multidisciplinary expertise for the benefit of the institute as a whole.
