The faculty brings together bioanalysis, medicine, the environment and digital methods — ranging from molecular analytics and bioinformatics to medical informatics, Environmental biotechnology and biological forensics.

Bioanalysis, Medicine & the Environment

This programme focus brings together the faculty’s expertise in the life sciences, Biotechnology, chemistry, medicine and environmental studies. It encompasses Biotechnology, chemistry, bioinformatics, medical informatics, molecular analytics, environmental applications and biological trace analysis.

This also ensures that the biological aspects of forensics are appropriately taken into account, without artificially separating them from the life sciences context.

Research Groups / Institutes

Mittweida Institute for Medical Informatics (IMI), Saxon Institute for Computational Intelligence and Machine Learning (SICIM), FoSIL, research clusters in Biotechnology, bioinformatics, molecular biology, biochemistry and applied chemistry, laboratories and research areas focusing on molecular analytics, Environmental biotechnology, water treatment and biological diagnostics.
