University of Bern
The Institute of Surgical Technology and Biomechanics at the University of Bern is one of the pioneers and world leading centres in the field of computer-assisted surgery and a reference site for research on spinal biomechanics.
UBERN will be responsible for the simulation of cancer biomechanics, including macroscopic level simulation of the tumor, the biomechanical environment and its impact on tumor growth. We will also contribute to tumor imaging and visualization, developing advanced methods for image fusion, segmentation and automatic analysis. Contribution to data repository and IT infrastructure providing web-based access and related tools for basic data visualization, remote database queries and image processing.
