Working towards an accessible, diverse, and innovative research and development landscape: The institute’s scientists deepen the understanding of how digital medicine and the STEM fields it relies on shape healthcare. They develop interactive, aesthetic exhibits and demonstrators, as well as experience-oriented projects that integrate artistic practices at the intersection of science, art, and technological development. The aim is to enable critical dialogue and participation in new technologies, engage new participants, and foster a diverse research and development landscape.
Citizens, as well as professionals from science and art, are invited to contribute on an equal footing and learn together. Thereby, the Science Engagement at Fraunhofer MEVIS builds on the methods, principles, tools, and processes through which the institute fulfills its core mission.
