Research Focus Areas
AI Agents for Surgical Decision-Mapping

AI Agents for Surgical Decision-Mapping

Spine surgeons spend significant amounts of time assessing patients who are not surgical candidates, delaying care for those who truly require surgical intervention. The "FILTER" agent aims to solve this by leveraging advanced AI models, blockchain technology, and an innovative incentive system.


Machine Learning in Surgical Decision-Making

Machine Learning in Surgical Decision-Making

Surgical strategies often differ significantly between practitioners and institutions, leading to inconsistent outcomes, increased complication rates, and higher revision surgery frequency. The initiative DeScide aims to standardize and optimize surgical decision-making by leveraging AI models trained on large, expert-labeled datasets derived from real-world surgical cases and outcomes.


IoT Monitoring for Post-Operative Care

IoT Monitoring for Post-Operative Care

Despite significant advancements in surgical techniques, complications often arise during the recovery period, and the lack of real-time monitoring can lead to delayed intervention, preventable readmissions, and increased healthcare costs. TraCker leverages Internet of Things (IoT) technology, AI analytics, and blockchain infrastructure to create a seamless and effective post-operative monitoring system.
