ABOUT US

Our story

SURGAR project was born under the impulse of four co-founders: Nicolas Bourdel, Adrien Bartoli, Michel Canis and Bertrand Le Roy.

Our company builds upon the work of the EnCoV (Endoscopy and Computer Vision) research team. This team, specialised in computer vision, is part of the Image Guided Therapy (IGT) department of the UMR6602 Institut Pascal associating the CNRS, the University of Clermont Auvergne (UCA) and Clermont Auvergne INP. It is also affiliated to the University Hospital (CHU) of Clermont-Ferrand.
