Chemelot Institute for Science and Technology

Chemelot InSciTe is a public private knowledge and technical validation institute, founded in 2015 by DSM, UM & MUMC+, TU/e and the Province of Limburg. The partnership is dedicated to offer solutions grand societal challenges, health and wellbeing for an aging population a program on biomedical applications. The biomedical program aims to develop solutions for future health care for an aging population. The long-lived and aging population continues to drive up both, the healthcare burden and costs. Increasingly, the elderly suffer from chronic diseases. Many medical innovations that could provide solutions never reach the clinic and the patients, simply because it is too costly, and too time consuming. Chemelot InSciTe selects the most promising innovations and provides a fast-track to the clinic by combining know-how, an ISO certified infrastructure, a quality management system and expert staff. The biomedical facilities comprise 600 m2 of equipped state-of-the-art open RT&D laboratories and class B (ISO 5) cleanroom suites. A large office area with meeting rooms and private work places is located next to the laboratory facility. The office and lab areas are set up to stimulate collaboration and innovation. Newest equipment is added often in the biomedical facility to keep up with the latest innovations and to adapt to project requirements. The location on the Brightlands Maastricht Health Campus offers easy access to other testing facilities located nearby.
