Spin-Offs
iSurgical3D
The iSurgical3D is a company founded in 2010, fully dedicated to research, development and marketing of prosthetics and orthotics and other medical devices to use in patients based on 3D technologies. This project aimed to find an electro-mechanical platform based in 3D technologies for virtual modulation of implants for the correction of Pectus Excavatum by the Nuss procedure. The success of this project, whose intellectual property has now been patented, was the basis of the spirit that led to the creation of iSurgical3D, spin-off of the University of Minho. Currently, iSurgical3D is developing a strategy to extend its methodology to other human diseases, including correction of Pectus Carinatum, scoliosis and dental molding. The experience of its employees makes iSurgical3D a company specialized in advanced, customized solutions for surgery.

IPLEXMED
IPLEXMED goal is to make clinical diagnosis fast and accessible, both during medical consultations and eventually within the comfort of patients' homes. We are developing a cutting-edge diagnostic platform that includes a portable device and disposable cartridges. Central to our innovation is NexaGuard, IPLEXMED's diagnostic platform, a lab-quality rapid diagnostic device. Together with our first consumable it will quickly and precisely diagnose bacterial infections and their antimicrobial resistance profiles, particularly in patients with chronic respiratory conditions. IPLEXMED stands out for our ability to decentralize diagnosis. By enabling diagnosis in physicians' offices and patients' homes, we can identify infections that might otherwise remain undetected. Additionally, our device drastically reduces the diagnostic timeline from 2 to 7 days to just 20 minutes, resulting in significant cost savings for hospitals through reduced hospitalizations and associated healthcare expenses.
