More About Our Department
The Link Lab was created as part of a new initiative at UVA to create a world-class center of excellence in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). This initiative begins with over two dozen faculty drawn from multiple departments and will build upon existing strengths, such as UVA’s pioneering work in areas such as Body Sensors, Smart Buildings, Wireless Health, Resilient Infrastructure, and Intelligent Transportation Systems.
Visit the Link Lab Website >>The UVA Center for Wireless Health was established in 2009 to coordinate research efforts in this emerging field that seeks to infuse wireless technologies in healthcare and medical research with the goals of improving patient care and quality of life while reducing healthcare costs.
