Recently we made great progress in the automatization of pressures and flow regulation in our CBS platform: Ivar, a master student of Electrical Engineering at TU/e, helped us to tackle this challenge.

This year marks the start of collaboration with Angiolutions, who are developing a novel device innovation in the field of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.

We're looking back at a collaboration project that ended in the fall of last year: the development of a smart steerable catheter by Eindhoven Medical Robotics. LifeTec Group joined this MIT project to improve on vascular access to the heart in the Cardiac BioSimulator platform so that valuable information could be gained on the navigation capabilities of the novel catheter design in a very early phase.

We have been awarded an MIT grant by the Dutch Government for a collaborative research project with Cardiac Booster! Within this project, LifeTec Group will work on the next generation of pulse duplicator systems that respond to changes in hemodynamic loading. Cardiac Booster is developing a heart assist device, and together we can use both new technologies in device R&D as well as in clinical training on the use of such therapies.
