Technology Centers of the Radboudumc were highly successful in a recent call of the ZonMW-program Enabling Technologies Hotels. Out of the 60 projects that were awarded a grant, no less than 13 will be conducted at the Radboudumc.

The Technology Hotels Translational Neuroscience Unit (TNU), Preclinical Imaging Centre (PRIME) and Translational Metabolic Laboratory (TML) will be participating in these 13 projects as Technology Hotel. 
These hotels are part of three of our Radboudumc Technology Centers (RTC’s): the RTC Translational Neuroscience Unit, the RTC Mass Spectometry and the RTC Imaging.
 
The Technology Hotel concept entails that researchers (the guests) who do not have access to high-end technologies, can obtain access to these technologies and the connected expertise and infrastructure via a service-oriented facility (the Hotel). Each project will run for one year and is awarded € 30,000.
 
The ZonMW program Enabling Technologies Hotels is performed in close connection with the Dutch Techcentre for Lifesciences (DTL).  The main goal of the program Enabling Technologies Hotels is to provide wider access for researchers in the Netherlands to high-end technologies and the connected expertise and infrastructure. This is realized within the framework of public private partnerships.

Hotels
Within the coordinated group of 19 Radboudumc Technology Centers, 7 also serve as Technology Hotel:
  • Flow cytrometry
  • Translational Neuroscience Unit (TNU)
  • Preclinical Imaging Centre (PRIME)
  • Translational Metabolic Laboratory (TML)
  • Centre for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics (CMBI)
  • Microscopic Imaging (MIC)
  • Genome Diagnostics Laboratory 
Technology Centers
Good technological and methodological (research) facilities are essential for research, education and patient care. The Radboud university medical center therefore has accommodated these facilities in a coordinated group of 19 Radboudumc Technology Centers (RTCs) that provide optimal support to researchers from within and outside the Radboudumc, with state-of-the-art technological facilities and expertise.
