When medical research
meets engineering

Avrio MedTech is a spin-off of the CNRS (Brain and Cognitive Research Center - CerCo, epilepsy research),  ENAC (data visualization and XAI group) and Toulouse University.

Our team combines expertise in neuroscience, engineering and management. We work closely with medical doctors, engineers, and researchers at the Toulouse University Hospital. They are involved at different stages of the design and validation of our tools. 

Between 2018 and 2023, the Avrio MedTech project received several institutional awards, including the French governmental label “investir l’avenir“ (investing for the future).
