<br>*Applied Research for Connected Health (A.R.C.H.)*
<br>
<br>Applied Research for Connected Health (ARCH) is an Enterprise Ireland and
<br>IDA Ireland funded Technology Centre, which is led by University College
<br>Dublin in collaboration with the University of Limerick. ARCH is an
<br>industry-informed centre providing access to world class clinicians,
<br>academics and patient cohorts to explore and evaluate potential connected
<br>health solutions for the global market.
<br>
<br>In its Strategy for Science, Technology and Innovation (2006-2013), the
<br>Irish Government proposed the establishment of technology centres to
<br>address the ‘key issue of building and reinforcing areas of strength within
<br>both industry and academic sphere and ensuring that these are highly
<br>networked with each other’.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Given Ireland’s critical mass of medical device companies, pharmaceutical
<br>companies, clinical research organisation and ICT companies as well as the
<br>government’s eHealth Strategy, Ireland is in a unique position to become a
<br>global centre of activity and excellence in connected health and ARCH is at
<br>the centre of this unparalleled connected health education and research
<br>infrastructure.
