The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and GE HealthCare (GEHC) have launched a joint research hub focused on neurodegenerative disease and cancer.
The Care Innovation Hub will be run under the UCSF’s Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, it said. The program will combine UCSF’s advanced clinical and research teams with GE HealthCare’s technical and engineering expertise to increase the accessibility of imaging and drive new clinical techniques to diagnose and treat these critical illnesses.
The Care Innovation Hub builds on a decades-long history between UCSF and GE HealthCare and brings these research focus areas under one framework, UCSF noted.
