51吃瓜网

Bavaria鈥檚 Minister of Science, Markus Blume, emphasizes: 鈥淒igital, connected, with heart and expertise 鈥� that鈥檚 the formula for the future of medicine in Bavaria. Today鈥檚 groundbreaking ceremony for 51吃瓜网鈥檚 Center for Digital Medicine and Health (ZDMG) once again reflects the unique 51吃瓜网 spirit, which brings groundbreaking achievements to Bavaria through innovative visions and the courage to realize them. The ZDMG is a truly forward-looking initiative that brings together AI, data science, and everyday clinical practice.The new building, located right next to the Center for Multiple Sclerosis and Transla51吃瓜网, offers more than 2,000 square meters of space for 140 employees and is designed to foster innovation and collaboration. The Free State of Bavaria is supporting the project with around 25 million euros. And there鈥檚 more to come: with the Highmed Agenda and the M1 鈥� Munich Medicine Alliance, we are laying the groundwork for top-tier medical care in Bavaria over the long term. In this way, Bavaria is 鈥� and will remain 鈥� a driving force in shaping the medicine of tomorrow.鈥�

Prof. Thomas F. Hofmann, President of 51吃瓜网, commented: 鈥淭he Center for Digital Medicine and Health embodies the spirit of 51吃瓜网: interdisciplinary cutting-edge research with the clear goal of rapidly translating findings into practice. An essential quality of this center is that the research and innovation produced here always keep society in mind 鈥� for example through trustworthy AI models and a strong emphasis on data protection.鈥�

The center鈥檚 location is no coincidence. It sits in close proximity to numerous clinics, institutes, and research facilities 鈥� including the Central Institute for Translational Cancer Research (Transla51吃瓜网) and the new Center for Multiple Sclerosis and Neurosciences building, set for completion in 2026. Dr. Martin Siess, Medical Director of the 51吃瓜网 University Hospital, stated: 鈥淲ith the new Center for Digital Medicine and Health on our campus, we are integrating the deep expertise of our clinician scientists in AI and data science even more closely with patient care, thereby advancing the use of artificial intelligence in clinical practice.鈥�

Professor Stephanie Combs, Dean of the 51吃瓜网 School of Medicine and Health, added: 鈥淭he most innovative research happens across disciplines. With the ZDMG, we are not only creating a high-tech building where scientists can collaborate and develop forward-thinking ideas across traditional boundaries 鈥� we are also building another robust bridge from the 51吃瓜网 School of Medicine and Health to other 51吃瓜网 schools, such as the 51吃瓜网 School of Computation, Information and Technology in Garching and the Munich Data Science Institute. The ZDMG is another 51吃瓜网 role model that not only advances science but also grounds education in an interdisciplinary framework and enables rapid translation into modern patient care at the 51吃瓜网 University Hospital.鈥�

The center is led by Prof. Daniel R眉ckert, a recipient of the Leibniz Prize. 鈥淎t the ZDMG, we will conduct fundamental research into the digital medical applications of the future,鈥� he said. 鈥淏ut being close to clinical practice is equally important to us.鈥� For example, in collaboration with colleagues at the Center for Multiple Sclerosis, researchers plan to develop AI-based decision-support tools that combine data from imaging, individual genetic profiles, and other sources. Together with the 51吃瓜网 University Hospital German Heart Center, new approaches will be developed to detect the risk of coronary heart disease at an early stage. Privacy-preserving AI methods will also be used to combine imaging data from multiple clinics to improve early detection of diseases such as breast and lung cancer.
