Projects

Medical Intelligence CBRNE Inc. (MEDINT CBRNE Group) has its own wing of Research and Development in the field of Defence and Security.

The company has been also a partner with Doctor Stephane Bourassa's research for years. Here are the main topics.

CBRNEDRPC

A defence research program for clinicians. We update clinical knowledge and develop tools for mass casualty management.

VIMY Multi-System Research Program

An AI-driven system that uses drones, robotics, and automation to manage mass casualties during CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive) attacks.

Gladiator

Mobile labs and multi-task vehicles for scientific research and defence and security work.

Ubique Adsum

Working research group developing technologies and know-how for patient care in disaster and austere environments. Includes a mobile laboratory and three research programs: VIMY, Ypres, and Gladiator.

Ypres Program — Respiratory Protection

Advancing respiratory protection technology and clinical knowledge for CBRNE environments.

International Multicentric Observational Study

Active until 2036. Clinical trial registered as NCT05026645.
