The LOOP Zurich BioMedical Informatics Platform (BMIP) - Call for Proposals for Project Planning and Management
The LOOP Zurich is establishing a central BioMedical Informatics Platform - The LOOP Zurich BioMedical Informatics Platform (The LOOP Zurich BMIP) - across four university hospitals in Zurich, i.e., the University Hospital Zurich (USZ), the University Children's Hospital Zurich (Kispi), the Balgrist University Hospital (Balgrist) and the University Hospital of Psychiatry Zurich (PUK) together with the two universities ETH Zurich (ETHZ) and the University of Zurich (UZH).
The LOOP Zurich is seeking proposals from companies or individuals to assist in developing an IT research platform between the major Zurich hospitals and academic partners (University of Zurich and ETHZ) of strategic importance to the Zurich medical research ecosystem. The platform will allow for translational data-driven research involving routine clinical data. It is an integral part of The LOOP Zurich’s precision medicine vision and aims to be compatible with national and international biomedical data sharing initiatives.
