RAMIT is a non-profit independent research organistion. The working-team in RAMIT is multidisciplinary: medical doctors, engineers, informaticians, statisticians and secretarial staff. Recent activities include successful national, European and international projects dealing with eg. electronic medical record systems, decision support systems, electronic health data interchange, security, natural language processing in healthcare and computer assisted instruction in medicine.

RAMIT has been participating successfully in more than 85 National and International R&D projects (often in a co-ordinating capacity) in both the framework of EU-Research Programmes and of national R&D Programmes. RAMIT’s R&D activities resulted in the creation of five spin-offs.
