The work is part of HHC’s “innovation ecosystem,” a climate where intriguing and sustainable notions are welcome, innovators are paired with the deep and varied resources of a comprehensive healthcare system, and ideas give way to new solutions, clinical pilots and investments that allow them to flourish.

Here are some of the success stories:

• CytoVeris. The Connecticut-based company funded by Connecticut Innovations has worked with HHC since 2020 to develop and validate artificial intelligence/machine learning technology to increase the accuracy and precision of cancerous tumor removal. Imaging solutions show promise for bladder, prostate and breast cancer surgeries. HHC was the first clinical partner to validate this technology, and is discussing a collaborative agreement to further the innovation partnership.
