ROBOTICSInstitute for Robotics and Mechatronics

In the short and medium term, robotics, in all its diverse and interdisciplinary forms, will not only influence classic indus-trial manufacturing but also significant areas of our working and everyday lives. ROBOTICS addresses current business needs for application-oriented research for these technolo-gies at the interface between the digital and real worlds.With their interdisciplinary and mechatronic structure, the disciplines of mechatronics and robotics in general, and research into the field of human-robot cooperation in particular, represent a promising supplement to the research portfolio of JOANNEUM RESEARCH.

This enables us to provide industrial partners with impor-tant assistance and comprehensive support for the deve-lopment of innovative production processes and simul-taneously increase the readiness for an entry into new, trend-setting and research-intensive areas of technology.

COREMED is a joint initiative between JOANNEUM RESEARCH and the Medical University of Graz established to drive research and development in the domain of regenerative medicine forwards, in particular in the fields of cut and wound healing, scarring and skin ageing.

COREMED offers interdisciplinary, complete solutions in R&D services for the pharmaceutical and medical-technical industry.

Within the domain of regenerative medicine, the focus of COREMED’s research is currently on the organ skin and its processes of regeneration and repair – healing instead of just repairing.

This includes:

Q Physiological Processes of Wound Healing in Acute Wounds (e.g. Burn Injuries)

Q Pathological Mechanisms that Form the Basis for the Emergence of Chronic Wounds or Hypertrophic Scars

Q Process of Skin Ageing and the Associated Changes
