Bilateral Contracts with Industry

MIMESIS has active bilateral collaborations with following industrial partners:

• InSimo: A startup providing biomedical simulation software which are able to reproduce the behavior of organs, tissues and surgical procedures in a realistic and interactive way. Created in January 2013 as a spin-off forces by former members of team SHACRA (the predecessor of MIMESIS). Currently, we collaborate on simulations of eye surgery as well as on preparation of projects aiming at validation of algorithms and codes of simulation framework SOFA.

• Altran: A global leader in innovation and high-tech engineering consulting, Altran accompanies supports its clients in the creation and development of their new products and services. We have a common history of successful collaboration via CIFRE Ph.D. thesis of Rosalie Plantefève. A new CIFRE Ph.D. will start on 01/01/2018 focusing on fusion of multisensor data in the context of intra-operative navigation of catheters.

• Siemens: A global leader in healthcare industry. Via IHU, we collaborate with Siemens in the context of the IHU project CIOS Alpha Fusion dealing with augmentation of the intra-operative image provided by a fluoroscopic imaging modality with pre-operative data.

• Renumics: A German startup focusing on automation of computer aided engineering (CAE) using artificial intelligence in general and machine learning techniques in particular. In close collaboration with SOFA Consortium, MIMESIS is involved in preparation of projects aiming at validation of SOFA.

• Naviworks: A South Korean company specialized in ICT convergence simulation/IoT smart controlling. We collaborate on simulation and visualization in the context of interventional radiology.
