About us

The Validitron is a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians and research experts in digital health implementation, UX/human factors, and evaluation based at the University of Melbourne.

We help de-risk and accelerate digital health innovation, uncovering design issues and implementation blockers early enough to be fixed without wasting resources or affecting patient care.

We operate from state-of-the-art simulation-based research facilities within the Melbourne Connect innovation precinct. Our approach allows us to efficiently design, prototype and test digital health ideas before reaching the real world.

We work with healthcare partners, start-ups and larger enterprises, government, researchers, and clinician innovators both within and beyond Australia.
