Description

Well established and successful structures exist to support entrepreneurs across the Imperial College ecosystem, from early-stage experimental medicine, scientific innovation and engineering advances, to start-up formation.


However, innovation in the MedTech space has remained notoriously difficult, with additional complexities and barriers to market entry such as regulatory hurdles, high development costs before a technology can attract investment, and challenges with NHS adoption.

MedTechONE tackles this challenge and exists to support all MedTech entrepreneurs at Imperial College London.

The MedTechONE collaborative pillar will form connections to local and national networks of different clinical specialties.

This includes supporting the coordination of evaluations of our technologies in wider clinical trials, as well as accepting devices into our medical technologies programme for support at all stages of translation, from first-in-human to early adoption.

Working collaboratively with clinical scientists and engineers, the postholder will be supporting the day-to-day running and development of this high impact activity.


The Hamlyn Centre, where the post is based, is co-hosted by the Department of Surgery & Cancer, which has a strong focus on technological innovation with emphasis on clinical translation, resulting in direct patient benefits with global impacts.

The Centre is one of the several research centres that make up the Institute of Global Health Innovation (IGHI). Focusing on improving global health and healthcare through evidence-based innovation, IGHI is one of Imperial's six global challenge institutes.
