Six innovative projects at UPF will receive funding and support for their development thanks to the knowledge transfer promotion programme UPF INNOValora. The UPF Business Shuttle-Innovation Unit has published the selected projects for a new edition of this programme organised to help promising technologies and knowledge generated by university research reach the production phase.
Three of the selected projects come from the Department of Experimental and Health Sciences (DCEXS), while the three remaining projects belong to the Department of Information and Communication Technology (DETIC). Each will receive 30,000 euros from the programme, co-financed by the Catalan regional government and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). In addition, a specialized external mentor will be available to the projects for consultation throughout the period of their implementation.

Interventions on fetuses can treat potentially very serious conditions for unborn babies and are among the most challenging to perform due to difficulty of access, reduced vision and manoeuvrability, a lack of information about what to expect once inside the patient, and the patient s extreme fragility.
In recent years, to achieve a realistic simulation of the patient, major breakthroughs have been achieved in medical imaging techniques, AI and mixed reality. These advances are of paramount importance to surgeons as they enable them to plan surgery well in advance and train all of the most challenging steps of their interventions before entering the operating room.
