The Wyss Zurich is a joint accelerator of the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich), which was made possible by a generous donation from the Swiss entrepreneur and philanthropist Dr. h.c. mult. Hansjörg Wyss. It was established to foster translational research focused on developing treatment protocols and clinical therapies, as well as novel technologies and intelligent systems, in the emerging fields of Regenerative Medicine and Robotics, and hybrid technologies thereof.
To put the Wyss Zurich Translational Center on a stable long-term footing, the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich in November 2021 established the non-profit Wyss Zurich Foundation as a new Foundation for Translational Research and Technology Transfer. The Board of Trustees of the Wyss Zurich Foundation decides on the financial contributions to the Wyss Zurich Translational Center, and to the translational projects.
