Working from space on the NYMC campus allows Philips to collaborate more closely with its innovation partners at the College and their three affiliated teaching hospitals on the Valhalla, New York campus of Westchester Medical Center Health Network (WMCHealth). WMCHealth has also launched a new precision medicine initiative for personalized cancer treatment, which will leverage Philips’ IntelliSpace Genomics solution as one of the first partners to integrate large-scale genomic analysis with extensive patient clinical data.
“In order to create technologies that can have a meaningful impact on human health and enable us to focus on building a healthy society, we need to work closely with leading healthcare institutions to co-create outcome-based solutions,” said Hans-Aloys Wischmann, Head of Philips Research Americas. “No single company will be able to create the solutions needed, it will take collaborative efforts, and we believe that working with academic institutions like New York Medical College will provide tremendous opportunities to shape a totally new approach to the delivery of healthcare.”
