We are developing the medical technology of tomorrow.
In interdisciplinary teams from clinic, industry and science, we research and develop solutions and technologies for image-guided minimally invasive medicine.
Our aim are innovative, patient-friendly, high-quality and specifically required diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for diseases in oncology, neurology and cardiology. To this end, clinicians define the need and interdisciplinary teams research and develop customised solutions that are tested and integrated into patient treatment.
Our vision is to improve healthcare of today and tomorrow as a research and innovation centre for image-based medicine.
The public-private partnership is formed by Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Siemens Healthineers AG and the STIMULATE Association with over 40 members from the medical technology industry and science.
On 17 March 2026, Eric Einspänner successfully defended his doctoral thesis entitled “Multimodal 7T MRI and biomarker analysis of reversible brain changes following acute sleep deprivation”.
Python programming course for (medical) students. Since May 2024, learn free of charge and independent of time in order to later be able to implement applications for processing large amounts of data in medicine.

On National Career Orientation Day, 30 schoolgirls will gain insights into the medical technology industry, medical technology courses at OVGU and current fields of research at the research campus. transPORT is offering a socio-cultural programme at Wissenschaftshafen Magdeburg for a group of schoolchildren.
On Monday, 27 April, the next STIMULATE forum will take place from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. in hybrid form – on site in Building 82, Room 120, and via the cloud meeting service ‘Zoom’. Speakers/Presentation titles: Simon Schröer: Model-based algorithms for the improvement of real-time 3D necrosis estimation based on MR thermometry Iam Spitz: tba
This year, STIMULATE will be at its own exhibition stand at Medtech Live to provide information on the latest research in interventional imaging and to network.
At the Open Day at OVGU, STIMULATE will be presenting the two medical technology degree programmes – the ‘Bachelor’s in Medical Technology’ and the ‘Master’s in Medical Systems Engineering’ – and will be happy to answer any questions about the programmes.
Join the Campus Pitch MedTech at STIMULATE, where companies meet students to exchange ideas, explore career opportunities, and spark future innovations in medical technology.
Insights into science at the Research Campus STIMULATE with exciting experiments, laboratory tours and hands-on activities for the general public. Programme to follow.
Save the date: Join the transPORT Harbor Conference on July 7, 2026 at STIMULATE to engage in dialogue on innovative transfer formats connecting society, industry, and science.
To mark the OVGU’s ‘Urban Utopia’ Summer School, the Research Campus STIMULATE is opening its laboratory doors to give international students an insight into research in interventional imaging, as well as the medical technology degree programmes and further career opportunities within the STIMULATE network.
