Project description

Innovative diagnostic and prognostic platform for coronavirus pandemics

The EU-funded DRAGON project is supporting the effort of a multinational consortium of academic research institutes, biotech and pharma partners, affiliated patient-centred organisations and professional societies to develop a multifaceted diagnostic and prognostic platform to prevent and fight future coronavirus pandemics. Data from the current pandemic will be used to validate and optimise diagnostic and prognostic solutions. Using advanced AI techniques, molecular profiling will be shaped into a precision medicine approach for the accelerated development of new therapies. The proposed study will be one of the first to develop innovative machine learning techniques and introduce clinical procedure improvements that will potentially have a breakthrough impact on future coronavirus outbreaks.
