HORIZON 2020
In January 2020, ServTech began a new research and innovation project in the medical sector: QUALITOP. This project aims at monitoring multidimensional aspects of QUAlity of Life after cancer ImmunoTherapy and will implement an Open smart digital Platform for personalized prevention and patient management.Until December 2018, ServTech researched successfully on innovative management concepts in manufacturing in the context of the Horizon 2020 project ICP4Life. This project started in January 2015. The core research challenge of the project was the development of methods and prototype tools that allow manufacturing industry to co-design products and supporting services and customize both to the consumers' needs. This includes the option to enhance a product with unforeseen components, sensors, and service.
