13 March 2024 | Better and more health services for the benefit of the individual patient, the overall healthcare system, and society in general. This is the vision when the Capital Region of Denmark and DTU establish Denmark’s first technical university hospital. Under the name Technical University Hospital of Greater Copenhagen (TUH), the partnership aims to bring DTU’s technological and academic competences into play in the healthcare system by creating new solutions for diagnosis and treatment of patients as well as for efficient hospital operations. At the same time, healthcare professionals will receive continuing education in innovation and technology.
“In recent years, we’ve seen a fantastic development in our hospitals, where new and innovative solutions have helped improve our patient care. We have an excellent collaboration with DTU, and we’re now taking it to an even higher level with the establishment of Denmark’s first technical university hospital. Together, we will create the framework for even more innovation and smart technological solutions to ensure that the Danish healthcare system remains among the very best in the world,” says Lars Gaardhøj, Chairman of the Regional Council in the Capital Region of Denmark.
