DEEP-HEALTH will raise scientific excellence and innovation capacity in AI-driven and data-enabled Health Technologies by building strong and lasting synergies between Widening and non-Widening Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The project will modernize institutional governance, improve research management, and accelerate digital transformation through reforms, skills development, and joint research, helping universities in Widening countries take a stronger role in European R&I. Based in Greece and involving partners from Czechia, Germany, Spain, Belgium, and France, the consortium will build a balanced network of universities advancing digital health research and innovation. The work is structured around five pillars: Education & Skills, Research Excellence, Institutional Modernization, Digital Transformation and Ecosystem & Partnerships, to raise scientific performance, digital readiness, and innovation uptake in HealthTech. Participating HEIs will co-develop a Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda (SRIA), update research assessment systems in line with CoARA & ERA principles and adopt AI-based tools for data management and open science.
