The centre’s research projects are selected on a basis of a transdisciplinary approach applied on a biological system with implications for a societal challenge, such as supporting sustainable growth in aquaculture or healthy brain function and mental illness. All projects in the centre develop or use computational methods and approaches. The projects have a clear aim and ambition that their efforts will contribute to future solutions and value creation within the areas of health, marine, agriculture and forestry, or process industry.
The centre support the member projects to create innovation and accelerate commercialization originating from their research.
The Centre can provide:
- Innovation support – develop a good idea further
- Assessment of project status and guide to “next steps”
- Support in developing a regulatory strategy
- Support on contacting TTO, relevant DLN projects and networks
- Support on business model strategy
- Support on funding schemes
- Training programs supporting innovation and commercialisation processes
