Center for Digital and Technological Innovation in Healthcare

Transforming Healthcare Through Technology, Innovation, and Collaboration

The Center for Digital and Technological Innovation in Healthcare (CDTIH) is Fresno State’s first interdisciplinary center dedicated to advancing healthcare through technology and innovation. The Center brings together faculty from five colleges—Health and Human Services, Engineering, Science and Mathematics, Business, and Education—to collaboratively develop solutions that enhance health outcomes, support workforce development, and promote economic growth across California’s Central Valley.

The CDTIH serves as a dynamic hub for research, education, and community engagement in emerging areas such as artificial intelligence (AI), virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), telehealth, robotics, wearable technologies, and digital health. Through strong partnerships with healthcare providers, industry, and K–12 institutions, the Center aims to expand access, strengthen digital health literacy, and foster innovation and entrepreneurship across the region.
