Consortia for Improving Medicine with Innovation and Technology (CIMIT)
CIMIT accelerates innovation in healthcare by facilitating collaboration among clinicians, healthcare managers, technologists, engineers, and entrepreneurs to develop and implement leading-edge products, services, and procedures that improve patient care.
CIMIT is a network of world-class academic and medical institutions partnering with industry and government.
Mission
Our mission is to foster collaboration among clinicians, technologists, and entrepreneurs to accelerate innovation and catalyze the discovery, development, and implementation of innovative healthcare technologies.
Accelerating Healthcare Innovation
We have created a successful model for accelerating translational medical research, devices, procedures, and clinical systems by working together with clinicians, scientists, researchers, and engineers to identify gaps, areas of unmet need, and the innovative ideas to address those gaps. We then facilitate collaboration across institutions and with companies, foundations, and those invested new medical technologies to quickly push forward these leading-edge ideas to where they will directly impact patient care.
Research at Mass General
Every day, our clinicians and scientists chart new terrain in biomedical research to treat and prevent human disease and advance patient care.
