The increasing digitalization of medicine is changing the requirements of modern healthcare and offering new opportunities for a more efficient healthcare system. The fast-paced progress in medicine obligates the field of medical engineering to search for innovative developments and improved processes in diagnostics and personalized therapies. FAU advances medical process technology through interdisciplinary groups and, whether in medicine or computer science, researchers address the challenges of the future of human health by working together in broad-ranging areas from precision medicine to digital medical care in the home environment to medical information systems.
