Testing new medical devices often means competing for operating room time, finding specialized training space, or navigating a slow, fragmented development process. The new ASCENT Surgical Lab at CMI was built to change that.

We’ve created a space where clinicians, researchers, and industry partners can rapidly prototype, test, train, and collaborate under one roof. Your promising ideas can now move closer to patient care in a streamlined ecosystem built for tomorrow.

If you're interested in the future of medtech, surgical training, and health care innovation, this story offers an exciting look at what's possible when barriers are removed and collaboration takes center stage.
