About us


The Institute for Computational Imaging and AI in Medicine (CompAI) at TUM and the Institute of Machine Learning in Biomedical Imaging (IML) at Helmholtz Center Munich focus on research to leverage machine learning for the grand challenges in biomedical imaging in areas of unmet clinical need. Novel and affordable solutions should empower clinics to make more accurate, fast and reliable decisions for early detection, treatment planning and improved patient outcome. We are looking for team members, please contact us.
