The Medical Autonomy and Precision Surgery lab (MAPS) was established in 2015 to bring advanced technologies to enhance surgical interventions. Since then, MAPS has demonstrated clinical achievements in robotics, AI, computer vision, and machine intelligence. Currently, the main focus of the lab is advancing clinical automation for high precision clinical applications such as ophthalmology. 

Our Team

MAPS multidisciplinary team consists of researchers and students from various desciplines includining medicine, computer science, electrical engineers and mechanical engineering. 

The lab offers education and training from undergraduate to graduate level in all relevant disciplines. MAPS collaborates with several national and international research groups, providing exchange programs.
