The PRoF 2017 Award

The University of Ghent (Belgium) is always looking for innovative projects in healthcare applications. To achieve this, an award competition was first organised in 2015 and again in 2016 by the PRoF chair, held by prof. dr. R. Peleman. The laureates of this competition will be invited for the Award ceremony chaired by former President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy, during the international symposium.

Deadline for submission: Wednesday March 1st 2017 (12o’clock)

* PRoF is a European open innovation consortium that started in 2009. It brings together more than 300 care professionals from multiple disciplines and organisations to think about the evolution of care systems. The power of the consortium lays in its interdisciplinary approach where care organisations work together with research centres, universities and companies to create visions for the future. Each of these visions has been realized as a concept room, which can all be visited at the PRoF location in Poperinge – Belgium. (www.prof-projects.com)
