Fusion Research
A Transversal Concept
The Champalimaud Foundation uses a novel methodology of Fusion Research, which seeks to bridge the gap between the research developed in the laboratory and the clinical application of our scientific advances. The result is an environment of research-based clinics, clinically based research and advanced technology underlying all areas.
