About
Context
Clinical laboratories generate a high volume of data that is often underutilized for identifying undiagnosed conditions or anticipating complications. This challenge seeks solutions capable of predicting and/or prescribing based on biomarkers obtained from clinical analyses, supporting early diagnosis and optimization of therapeutic interventions.
Objectives of the Challenge
· Identify undetected pathologies or imminent clinical risks.
· Propose additional diagnostic tests or personalized therapeutic adjustments.
· Ensure the model's explainability, safety, and robustness.
· Regulatory preparation in accordance with CE marking under MDR, if applicable.
· Integration with LIS/HIS/EHR systems via HL7 v2/FHIR.
Type of Technology Sought
· AI/ML/DL, NLP, time series analysis, hybrid models.
· Big Data: data quality, pipelines, MLOps, version control.
· Optional hardware if it provides differential biomarkers.
Partner Profiles
Startups, technology centres, universities, and scale-ups with experience in digital health, MDR regulations, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, IEC 62304, ISO 27001, and GDPR. Maturity level TRL 6–8.
Scope of the Challenge
· Proof of concept lasting 8–12 weeks with light integration and initial clinical validation.
· Optional pilot in a real-world setting.
· Deliverables: functional demo, validation report, regulatory dossier, integration and clinical adoption plan.
