Welcome to the presentation page for IMT-BS’s research chair.
A chair works in collaboration with sponsoring organizations (companies, local authorities, institutions or associations). It develops specific teaching and research programs in fields matching the school’s academic expertise, in synergy with Institut Mines-Télécom’s research fields.
Institut Mines Télécom Business School holds 1 research chair and 1 research network: the Augmented Operating Room Chair and Good in Tech network.
Augmented Operating Room Innovation Chair (BOPA)
This chair identifies issues in the operating room and provides human and technological solutions. By modernizing the operating theatre in both human and technological terms, the BOPA team aims to transform the way surgical procedures are analyzed and learned.
Key research areas of the BOPA chair
- Surgeon preparation, pre-operative planning
- Tele-expertise and training of young surgeons
- Enriching morbidity and mortality reviews (“reversed research”)
- Objective assessment of quality of care in the operating room
- Composite confidence index in the operating room
- Healthcare funding, insurance pressure

BOPA is funded by the Fondation de l’AP-HP and the Fondation Mines-Télécom, thanks to the sponsorship of Sham (Relyens Group) and Boston Scientific Foundation Europe on the one hand, and Orange Healthcare, Medtronic and Richard Wolf on the other.
