Innovation that enables people and communities
The Center for MedTech Innovation at George Mason University brings together scientists, engineers, healthcare professionals, and community members to advance medical technologies into the real world through human-centered and community-engaged methodologies focused on the lived experiences of real people. Our vision is to enable all people to fully participate in life activities by driving innovation at the intersection of health, technology, and society.
We are addressing grand challenges at the intersection of health, society, and technology. We see health as a “state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity” [World Health Organization, 1946].
The center is led by Drs. Siddhartha Sikdar, Parag Chitnis, Samuel Acuña, and Jenny Mai Phan.
