Dear Readers, in our new MicroNews issue, we present our latest Feature on Biomedical Sensor Systems. Innovative projects from the areas of mRNA production automation, Gaia-x-based support systems for care workers, and rapid data acquisition for research into diseases such as Alzheimer's and depression provide insights into the research work of our colleagues in the Business Unit Health. Together with our partners, we are working on solutions for a resource-efficient transforming industry and on the creation of new jobs at regional level. In this context, we report on our participation in the EU project CLEVER and on ZaKI.D (Center for Applied Artificial Intelligence Duisburg), which is currently in the starting blocks. In a video interview, our colleague Christian Walk introduces you to our LiDAR detectors at the embedded world and we then show you our new blood pressure scale, which had its premiere at the DMEA. Also, visit us at three other trade fairs in May and June to experience more solutions live. There you can get to know our contactless vital sign measurement in the vehicle cabin, efficient RISC-V charging systems and highly sensitive image sensors. We look forward to meeting you in person and until then wish you a lot of fun reading. |

Feature | Biomedical Sensor Systems | Reading time: 5 min. Highly sensitive, intelligent medical sensors: Innovation drivers for a better healthcare for everyone  Karsten Seidl, Head of Business Unit Health, and his team want to shape the medical care of tomorrow with intelligent sensor solutions. »With the help of various sensors, for example, we relieve caregivers of the burden of measuring vital parameters, ensure high quality in the production of cancer therapeutics, and enable the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and depression,« explains Karsten Seidl. »We bring innovations to medical technology SMEs and thus make our contribution to a stable and progressive healthcare for patients.« Find out which projects will make this possible in our feature.
