The next Science for health conference, jointly organised by Medvia and BioWin, will discuss how AI, data & digitalisation can accelerate innovation in drug discovery & development and prevention & diagnostics. With a wide range of speakers and case studies, focus will be on how these digital technologies can help revolutionising the healthcare of today and tomorrow.
The conference brings together academics, industry leaders and policymakers every year to tackle health challenges and spark new research collaborations. During past editions, over 300 people united to form connections in Belgium and beyond.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
