Highlights
As part of the research line to develop new tools for the analysis of pulmonary images to extract relevant biomarkers for the clinical study of cardiopulmonary diseases, our group has collaborated with the Brigham and Women’s Hospital (Boston MA, USA) in a project financed by the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda MD, USA (Award No. 4R01HL116473-04) through a research contract. In this work a new method for the separation of pulmonary arterial and venous trees in CT lung images has been proposed and translated to the clinical study of the impact of vascular remodeling in smokers.
The project TEAM-Leuko that aims to develop a fast and cheap non-invasive neutrophil test for lymphoma patients has started pilot clinical trials in Hospital La Paz (Madrid) and Massachusetts General Hospital (Boston MA, USA) with the financial support of Massachusetts Institute of Technology Deshpande Center for Technological Innovation (Cambridge MA, USA).
The mobile application Olymtrip has been recognized as one of the “Best Ideas in 2016” awarded by Diario Médico. It was developed in collaboration with Hospital Clínic (Barcelona) and ISGlobal to early detect infections and to collect data on the health status of the Spanish athletes during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.
miCROWDscopy, a project to develop crowd-computing systems to allow citizens to collaborate through on-line video games on global health challenges like the diagnosis of malaria and tuberculosis, has received the European Foundations Award for Responsible Research & Innovation.
