A new consortium of the EU Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) will establish the biggest database of pathology images to accelerate the development of AI in medicine.

The Institute's expertise in digital medicine and the MR-Lab research has enabled Marshmallow Laser Feast (MLF) to work with medical data at the bleeding edge of capturing techniques.

The December issue of Science Advances contains the article “Breaking Medical Data Sharing Boundaries by Employing Synthesized Radiographs” by Tianyu Han from RWTH Aachen.

Prof. Dr. med. Fabian Kiessling is for the second time in a row in the list of highly cited researchers in the “Cross-Cield” category.

For the first time, the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) goes purely virtual and Fraunhofer MEVIS presents itself with a virtual booth at the RSNA 2020 conference and exhibition.

We are beginning our online STEAM course ‘Inside Out: 10 STEAM Evenings’ – an interdisciplinary exploration of digital medicine and the human body as part of the artist residency STEAM Imaging, jointly hosted with Ars Electronica in Linz, Austria, in collaboration with the International Fraunhofer Talent School and the School Center Walle Bremen, and UCLA ArtSci Center, Los Angeles, USA.

Marshmallow Laser Feast, one of the leading virtual reality creators in recent years, and Fraunhofer MEVIS as scientific partner cooperate on the installation The Tides Within Us, the initial part of the Human Nature exhibit at York Mediale 2020.

Fraunhofer MEVIS is presenting two short films at the three day & night event Bright Festival Connect taking place from October 23 to 25 in the Kunstkraftwerk in Leipzig.

August 2020 marked the 25th anniversary of the founding of the research center MEVIS at the University of Bremen. From this, today's Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Medicine MEVIS developed with over 120 employees at the locations Bremen, Lübeck, Berlin and Aachen.

The Executive Board of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft has appointed two long-standing colleagues as deputy institute directors of Fraunhofer MEVIS.
