PI-SENS - Personalized Medicine Enabled by Intelligent Sensing Systems

Welcome at PI-SENS
 

Personalized Medicine Enabled by Intelligent Sensing Systems

PI-SENS is part of DPU,  characterized by entrepreneurial thinking combined with first-class research and development.

Personalized medicine on a chip shifts the focus from the treatment of diseases to their prevention. Biosensors can be used to diagnose at molecular level in real time at all times.

*Innovative solutions for better healthcare*

Present health care systems need to be adapted because important ongoing and anticipated future social trends will put increasing stress on the health systems in Austria as well as in the European Union and worldwide. The aging society, globalization as well as changes related to an urban lifestyle, individualism and living alone will cause additional pressures on health services. The healthcare system is challenged further by more and more patients with multiple problems. In the traditional approach the focus lies on the treatment of diseases and not so much on the prevention or avoidance of them.
Even if prevention has come more and more into focus in recent years, the development of new and improved types of sensors for simple, preferably noninvasive and uncomplicated on-site diagnostic for prevention of diseases is required.

- DPU -

Danube Private University (DPU) in Krems-Stein an der Donau, Lower Austria, is embedded in the Wachau UNESCO World Heritage Site, 60 km from the gates of Vienna and in one of the most attractive regions in Austria.

DPU was the first private university in Austria to receive accreditation for a department of medicine/dentistry. The university can now look back on a great success story in teaching and it’s also established itself internationally in research.
