It will be a main step for the strategic direction of the KIT Center “Health Technologies” in the context of the Helmholtz Research Field information. The European Virtual Human Twins (VHT) Initiative is a flagship initiative of the European Commission to accelerate the development of integrated, validated digital representations of the human body. The Virtual Human twin across all scales hold substantial potential for medical research and health technologies, contributing to a deeper understanding of human physiology, pathology in health and disease, as well as facilitating personalized, and stratified medicine. This Initiative includes the envisaged European “Virtual Human Twin” platform, fostering collaboration and resource sharing to propel the development of science and technology required for building highly advanced “Virtual Human Twins “ for future medical applications and health.

During her start-up tour through Karlsruhe and Stuttgart, Petra Olschowski, Minister of Science, Research and the Arts Baden-Württemberg, visited the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) on Wednesday, March 27, 2024. She learned about funding and support opportunities for research-based spin-offs.
The KIT Center for Health Technologies (KITHealthTech), where more than 150 KIT researchers are working on medical technologies and personalized medicine, also introduced itself and its digital platform "KARE" . ("Karlsruhe Region of Health Technologies"). The focus is on the care of patients and their integration into the work of the center in order to establish a national data space for health technol.ogies
We warmly welcome Simone Mayer as the newest member of the KIT Center HealthTech. Joining KIT in February 2024 as a W3 Professor for Systemic Cellular Neurobiology at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), She spent several year of scademic research in well known intstitutions such as the University of Cambridge (UK), the University Göttingen, the Broad Stem Cell Center of the University of California, and the Hertie Institute at the University of Tübingen. During this time, she developed a pioneering technique for multimodal single-cell analysis. Her outstanding contributions were recognized with the Eva Luise Köher Research Award in 2023 and a Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Grant in 2022.
