Innovation & Inventions

The RTICC translates cancer discoveries into innovations. This path will change diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and will improve cancer patients’ quality of life. To succeed in bringing discoveries from the laboratory bench to application in the hemoatology and oncology wards, the RTICC connects researchers with the bio-industry at an early stage of discovery. RTICC members develop innovations up to the advanced preclinical stage. Their activities include testing new diagnostics and therapies at our affiliated oncology centers.

This goal is executed in collaboration with T3, the Technion’s technology transfer unit, headed by Ms. Rona Samler, General Manager and CBO of the Technion Research & Development Foundation (TRDF), as well as Prof. Lihi Zelink-Manor, the Technion’s Executive Vice President for Innovation and Industry Relations and member of the RTICC board.

We invite you to take a look below at the list of start-up companies that have been established by RTICC members.
