Thirteen virtual reality stations and a robotics room – the Centre for Medical Innovation and Technology (CeMIT) Cologne is a pioneering facility at the University of Cologne. Since May 2024, students, junior doctors and nursing staff have been able to practise virtual surgeries and emergency scenarios here.

The University of Cologne Foundation funded the VR laboratory’s equipment, including the necessary hardware and sensors, as well as the highly complex software programming.
