The mission of the unit is to develop and implement technologies, devices and theoretical tools to support medical diagnostics and treatment. The aim is to achieve a long-term improvement in the quality of life of patients suffering from chronic and lifestyle diseases. The institute publishes the scientific journal ‘Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering’ (Elsevier), which is indexed in bibliographic databases. Research related to projects funded by the National Science Centre (NCN), the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBiR), the National Agency for Science (NAWA) and the European Research Council (ERC) is carried out here. Work is also carried out as part of numerous national and international collaborations.
