Researchers, physicians, developers and industry collaborate at the Balgrist Campus in order to alleviate and to resolve the problems of patients suffering from musculoskeletal conditions. This interdisciplinary approach is fostered by a unique architecture.
Conditions of and injuries to the musculoskeletal system represent the largest proportion of hospital referrals in Switzerland. First and foremost, this places a burden on the patients and their families, as well as the economy. At Balgrist Campus, established 2015, challenges in the field of musculoskeletal health are comprehensively addressed by research teams in the areas of muscles, biomechanics, robotics, tumours and metastases, paraplegia and clinical orthopaedics combining their knowledge and further developing the most advanced therapeutic approaches.
At the same time, the architecture of the Balgrist Campus plays a crucial role. The groups work in open spaces, have functional workstations, share common infrastructures on split levels and - as a result - constantly move within the building.
The immediate encounter of people and ideas facilitates research and development at the highest level. This setting attracts the world's best researchers as well as partners in industry, who manufacture products for treatment, care and rehabilitation.
