Overview

Opened in March 2024, The London Institute for Healthcare Engineering (LIHE) at King’s College London will bring together world-class research and development expertise across the university, the NHS and medical technology companies.

Together, we will ensure healthcare engineering research is translated rapidly into new products and technologies that will benefit patients and support new medical technology companies to flourish.

Benefits

The Institute will bring together King’s research excellence, Guy’s and St Thomas’ (GSTT) leading clinical practice and the MedTech sector’s commercial innovation power and talent, engaging multinationals, subject matter experts and start-ups simultaneously.

It will provide an ecosystem for close collaboration that will ensure research in healthcare engineering is translated rapidly into new products and technologies that will benefit patients.

This is a fabulous and impactful opportunity for King’s Health Partners; by bringing world-class researchers and clinicians together with industry partners, we can accelerate development of innovative and life-changing technology for patients and transform patient care.– Professor Richard Trembath, Senior Vice President (Health & Life Sciences) and Executive Director of King’s Health Partners
