Siemens Healthineers ties up with IISc, HCG,
Narayana Health
Bengaluru: German medical technology firm Siemens
Healthineers on Friday announced partnerships with the Indian Institute of
Science (IISc), cancer care provider HealthCare Global Enterprises (HCG), and
Narayana Health (NH), which runs a chain of speciality hospitals and care
centres.
Peter Schardt, chief technology officer of Siemens
Healthineers, said the tie-ups will help the company expand its technological
capabilities, allow it to be closer to patients, and help fight the most
threatening diseases.
The collaboration with IISc aims to drive research
and co-creation of technologies that improve imaging, and will also aim to
address issues around access to care. Prof Govindan Rangarajan, director of IISc,
said, “As IISc is opening up a new frontier of clinical research with the
establishment of the IISc Medical School and Bagchi-Parathasarathy Hospital,
this partnership with Siemens Healthineers will strengthen our focus in
integrating science, engineering and medicine. This partnership will also enable
our researchers to invent technologies for better and affordable healthcare
outcomes.”
The partnership with Narayana Health will focus on
advancing cardiovascular care and digital transformation in healthcare by
building on the capabilities from both organisations. The partnership with HCG
aims to make cancer care more personalised through the application of diagnostic
imaging technologies and artificial intelligence.
