Canon Medical Research Europe Ltd is a world leader in creating software for analysis and visualisation of CT, MRI, US and XR images. The company opened their Glasgow office within the CIZ earlier this year to increase the opportunities for collaboration between Canon’s engineers, clinical experts, scientists and academics. The move will also increase opportunity for collaboration with clinicians working within the CIZ and across the QEUH site as well as other industry partners of the University.
Dr Carol Clugston, the University’s College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences Chief Operating Officer, said: “We are delighted to welcome Canon Medical Research Europe Ltd to the University’s Clinical Innovation Zone at QEUH.
“The strategic location of Canon Medical Research Europe Ltd within the CIZ adds to our thriving life sciences cluster, which fosters collaboration with academia, NHS and industry partners to drive innovation and accelerate the development of precision medicine for patient and economic benefit.”
Dr Ken Sutherland, President of Canon Medical in Edinburgh said: “We’re delighted to be taking space within the University’s Clinical Innovation Zone. As a global company we’re always looking to collaborate with world experts in relevant areas and we’ve formed a strong bond with the MVLS team in Glasgow while we believe will serve us both well in the future.”
