In the WHAT HEALTH !? newsletter, find the latest news that has made the buzz, cutting-edge trends and groundbreaking innovations in the digital health field.
Emotional AI, sanitary pads that detect cancer, and increasingly intelligent surgical systems: medicine is expanding its frontiers.
In orthopedics, the ROSA® and Velys robots are enhancing the precision of knee prostheses. In pediatrics, artificial intelligence is beginning to assist clinicians in diagnosing fractures. On the prevention front, AI is making its way into everyday objects — like a smart sanitary pad developed at ETH Zurich to detect endometriosis or ovarian cancer.
Cancer research is also accelerating: 43,000 data points analyzed to personalize melanoma treatments, polygenic scores for more targeted prostate cancer screening, and patient-derived organoids to study kidney tumors.
Meanwhile, with hundreds of millions invested in digital health, Switzerland is clearly committing to data-driven healthcare, with a focus on interoperability, patient safety and research capabilities.
