Medicine in motion – Data you can touch

How can data improve medicine? Step into smart shoes, try rehabilitation games or identify the warning signs of sepsis on a tablet. Discover how researchers turn signals into valuable health information and how algorithms help make medical treatments safer.

How can a simple step become a precise diagnosis? Can a smartphone app help people recover after a stroke? And how can data save lives before the first symptoms even appear?

The Biomedical Data Science Lab invites you to experience medical data first-hand. We transform everyday signals – such as movement patterns or clinical measurements – into data-driven tools for patients and healthcare professionals. At our booth, you can explore four interactive mini-labs:

  • Smart shoes: Step into sensor-equipped shoes and watch your gait being analysed. Discover how this technology can help support people with back pain during treatment.
  • Making movement visible: Wear sensors on your ankles and receive your own gait analysis report. Learn how researchers measure and analyse movement after a spinal cord injury.
  • Rehabilitation through an app: Try exercises designed for stroke rehabilitation. Experience how an app captures your movements and helps improve coordination in an engaging and interactive way.
  • A race against time: Take on the role of an intensive care nurse on a tablet. Can you identify the warning signs of sepsis before time runs out?

Discover how algorithms help make medical treatments safer, more effective and more personalised.
Watch, participate and understand – we look forward to welcoming you.
