Neo-Bionica St Vincent's Hospital

Delivering World Class Medical Treatments and Innovations

We are honoured to have built and delivered Australia’s first medical device development facility – Neo-Bionica.⁠⁠ A joint venture between the Bionics Institute and the University of Melbourne, the lab is set to fast-track treatments for people with diseases such as epilepsy, Parkinson’s, hearing loss and stroke.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The opening of this fantastic facility is expected to completely translate Australian innovation, enabling the development of 20-30 new medical devices over the next 10 years.⁠⁠

Our team undertook the construction of a Class 7 cleanroom facility with robotic equipment, 3D printing technology and precision engineering tools critical to develop prototypes.⁠

The new space will act as a ‘dry lab’ with high quality environmental conditions creating a space that will ensure efficient workflow and visual connectivity between development components.

The Institute is renowned worldwide for the development of life-changing medical devices such as the cochlear implant, Minder™ epileptic seizure monitoring device and a unique nerve stimulation technique for the treatment of ulcerative colitis – an inflammatory bowel disease.
