With our vision in mind, i4PH stimulates cooperation between professionals from diverse backgrounds.
We achieve this by bringing together experts from the Eindhoven University of Technology, Wageningen University & Research, Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht (and their networks). They collaborate in a multidisciplinary approach at the forefront of research into health, lifestyle, living environment and technology.
In the i4PH program, we prioritize three key activities: research, education and community building.
