TIMC laboratory (Recherche Translationnelle et Innovation en Médecine et Complexité) brings together scientists and clinicians around the use of numerical sciences, applied mathematics and life sciences to understand and control normal and pathological processes in healthcare.

TIMC is an interdisciplinary unit in the field of Bio-Technologies for Health, developing a continuum of research in response to key healthcare themes, inspired by and organized around healthcare players. Its activities contribute both to basic knowledge in these fields and to the development of systems to aid diagnosis and therapy. The  GMCAO team (Gestes Médico Chirurgicaux Assistés par Ordinateur, https://www.timc.fr/gmcao) is involved in the RHU ICELAND.

The team’s activities are inspired by the constant clinical need for quality in the medical-surgical gesture, and the growing trend towards the development of minimally invasive approaches to ever-smaller targets, thanks to early diagnosis. The team, immersed in a hospital-university environment, is developing research activities in the fields of medical image processing, data fusion, modeling and simulation, in particular biomechanics and medical robotics. With three decades of experience under its belt, GMCAO is also developing research activities in the fields of medical image processing, data fusion, biomechanical modeling and simulation, and medical robotics.

The members of TIMC involved in the ICELAND RHU are :

• Sandrine Voros, HDR, Research Director
• Celine Fouard, PhD, Lecturer
• Clément Beitone, PhD, Lecturer
