Scientific Innovation and Research at the Genolier Campus: A Centre of Excellence in Medicine

At the heart of medical progress lies the ability to innovate and collaborate. The Genolier Campus, with its state-of-the-art infrastructure and multidisciplinary teams, plays a central role in promoting biomedical innovation and developing new therapeutic approaches.

In this interview, Jacques Bernier, Chief Scientific Officer Swiss Medical Network, explains the strategies that make the Genolier Campus a unique place for innovation, translational research and improved patient care.

Find out how the cross-fertilisation of medical disciplines and the importance of fundraising enable the Campus to transform innovative ideas into concrete healthcare solutions.

What role does the Genolier Campus play in promoting medical innovation?

Thanks to the diversity of its structures and the specialities they house, the Genolier Campus promotes biomedical innovation. This diversity of disciplines promotes what the Anglo-Saxons call ‘cross-fertilisation’ between different areas of medicine, such as medtech and biomolecular sciences.

Fundraising is essential for financing ambitious research projects, enabling innovative solutions to be developed in the laboratory. These financial resources accelerate the transition from scientific discoveries to clinical applications, rapidly improving patient care.

How does the Genolier Campus encourage collaboration between the various medical and research disciplines?

The logistical unity of the Genolier Campus is an optimal factor in significantly facilitating inter-disciplinary collaboration. With doctors, researchers and technology experts working together on the same site, the resulting synergies make it possible to cross-fertilise their respective skills and capabilities more effectively, and also multiply the number of joint projects.

How is patient care at the Genolier Campus different from other medical establishments?

Firstly, because in a significant number of cases, this care is the result of so-called ‘translational’ (i.e. transfer) research. This strategy focuses on the rapid implementation of scientific discoveries from the laboratory into clinical practice. The research carried out on campus improves the quality of patient care by developing innovative and personalised tools, particularly in oncology.
