Protecting individual population groups
Improving economic, legal and IT literacy
We have a proven track record of following through!
Simulation Centre of the MU Faculty of Medicine
One of the largest infrastructure projects to develop key healthcare education
programmes in the Czech Republic
We are the first university in the EU to have three grants awarded from the prestigious
Horizon 2020 programme for spreading excellence and have received almost a billion Czech
crowns to study the factors affecting human health
To create a national hub that
will integrate the options
opened up by advanced
robotisation and AI in
population health, safety and
the environment.
NATIONAL HUB
FOR ICT AND HEALTH
We have a clear vision
We will create a network of
strategic partnerships with
Czech and international
entities
And we are not alone
We will involve:
• Other research organisations
(Czech Technical University,
Brno University of
Technology etc.)
• Hospitals and healthcare
facilities
• Private sector companies
(such as Microsoft)
• Government bodies (Ministry
of Finance, Ministry of
Healthcare etc.)
For the meeting with the Czech Prime Minister Ing. Andrej Babiš / Professor and MU Rector Martin Bareš
Global goal
To create a permanent national response hub focusing on the health and life quality challenges of society 4.0
using ICT, primarily robotisation and AI, which would draw on the existing MU facilities (Simulation Centre of the MU
Faculty of Medicine, MU IT Campus) and cooperate with partner organisations in both the public and the private sector
To develop IT capacities for effective public policymaking in cooperation with national government authorities and
other stakeholders (international IT companies such as Microsoft) as an extension of our current activities (IT Campus)
To foster a research environment with direct application potential grounded in interdisciplinary collaboration
(utilisation of AI in healthcare, interdisciplinary pharmacological and healthcare approaches with application potential at
the University Hospital Brno and elsewhere, utilisation of the research findings into the environmental impact on human
health)
Result
The Czech Republic will become
a European healthcare innovation tiger by utilising advanced ICT to
ensure maximum safety and efficient use of public funding
