Academic Partners

Collaboration with Academic Institutions 

Georgia State University (GSU) is ranked No. 2 in the U.S. for Innovation by U.S. News & World Report, with more than $1 billion in research expenditures during the last five years. The Byrdine F. Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions has educated more than 12,500 health professionals.

Vizzia partnered with Georgia State’s Health Informatics Department to sponsor a peer-reviewed research project on the applications of RTLS to improve healthcare delivery. Many of the findings are documented in this White Paper and a summary was published by the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) in 2023.

Vizzia’s CSO serves on the advisory board of the GSU Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions. 

Emory University is one of the top-ranked institutions for research funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Emory School of Medicine has 10 departments in the top 20 for federal research funding.

The Emory Investigational Drug Service (IDS) is a research pharmacy operation that supports all Emory investigators in the conduct of industry and federally-funded drug studies. IDS has systems and procedures in place to meet the requirements of sponsors, the FDA, and other regulatory agencies. 

Emory IDS relies upon Vizzia to automatically monitor the temperature and environmental conditions of medical supplies in clinical trials. Real-time alerts let clinicians know if a refrigerator, freezer, or room deviates from desired conditions to protect important and expensive products.

Vizzia’s CFO received her BS in Biology from Emory University.
