Applied Research on Digital Health Technologies

In line with the mission of Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), which aims to achieve results of scientific excellence and to produce an impact on society, the Digital Health Research Group (DHR) of the Digital Health and Wellbeing Center of FBK develops cutting-edge solutions in the digital health area.   

We are engaged in applied research based on innovative

digital health technologies.


We promote and support a value-chain that combines high-scientific research (open and targeted) and innovation (social and technological) to have an important impact on healthcare system.

Our aim is to push the frontier of the state-of-the-art in digital health technologies while bringing innovation to our region through the TrentinoSalute4.0 program and positioning our research work at national and European level for improving the digital therapies of the future.
