About us
NVision is a quantum biotech startup based in Ulm Germany with Tier 1 investors from the USA and Europe. We are just leaving stealth mode moving from local R&D to global commercialization and expansion.
We are developing a technology that will enable MRI-based imaging of real-time metabolism in the body with tremendous potential for research and applications in oncology cardiology neurology and more. Our company brings together expertise in physics chemistry engineering and medicine and we are collaborating with scientists and clinicians from top medical and research centers such as Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York MD Anderson in Texas Technical University of Munich Cambridge University in the UK and more.
NVision is developing fast robust and easy-to-use hyperpolarization technology for preclinical and clinical research in our POLARIS product line. Those devices are placed close to an MRI scanner in a research or clinical environment to produce hyperpolarized contrast agents on demand in a fast fully-automated multi-step chemical process. Key steps of the process contain fluidic transport across multiple vessels and chemical mixing and separation processes in fully-reuseable or single-use disposable fluid paths. We develop our commercial products jointly with external design and manufacturing partners and the process development as well as the design and manufacturing of prototypes is done entirely in-house.
We offer a dynamic international working environment with immense room for growth that encourages personal initiative and open communication.
