London Institute for Healthcare Engineering (LIHE)

The construction of the London Institute for Healthcare Engineering (LIHE) at our St Thomas’ campus was completed in late 2023 and occupied in early 2024.

LIHE, part of the vision for St Thomas’ MedTech Hub, is a joint initiative led by King’s School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences and Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust. It is situated in a new building embedded within the St Thomas’ campus, with its aim to bring together King’s research excellence, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust’s leading clinical practice and the medtech sector’s commercial innovation power and talent, engaging multinationals, SMEs and start-ups simultaneously.

The close collaboration will ensure that research in healthcare engineering is translated rapidly into new products and technologies that will benefit patients.

The building’s architectural design explicitly fosters collaboration, with multiple areas inviting creative interaction between our community members. You can find out more about LIHE here
