Bioconvergence is a multidisciplinary approach integrating biotechnology, engineering, and computing to address complex challenges. This innovative field is revolutionizing diagnostics, materials development, pharmaceuticals and sustainable agriculture. Find out how CSEM applies Bioconvergence in its projects and accelerates the transformation for the benefit of its clients and partners.
For a long time, science has been divided in different disciplines. Now the walls are coming down: Skills and technologies from fields like biology, engineering and digitalization are coming together to lift health care and life sciences to the next level. CSEM is positioned in the middle of this new megatrend called bioconvergence.
«Bioconvergence is transforming health care and biotech industry, development and manufacturing», say Samantha Paoletti & Gilles Weder, Co-Heads of Research & Business Development for the Life Sciences Technologies at CSEM.
The interdisciplinary collaboration between different fields of science and technology will open the door for innovative solutions for personalized healthcare, Biotech and pharmaceutical research. «These new applications will be made faster and more affordable through standardization, parallelization and artificial intelligence as we transition from manual to automated workflows.»
At CSEM «all the ingredients for systematic collaboration and interdisciplinary projects are already in place» says Alexandre Pauchard, CSEM's CEO.
Our expertise in cells and body fluids is complemented by the activities of CSEM Digital Health which focuses on the development of medical wearables to prevent diseases, monitor at-risk patients, and enhance behavioral changes.
Put together, people, experience, know-how and facilities add up to a perfect ecosystem for bioconvergence for the healthcare sector.
