This much is already clear: this year we received an above-average number of ideas 💡 from the health sector. We are very pleased about this, because the intersection between space 👩‍🚀 and health 👩‍⚕️ offers great potential - as this successful example from the INNOspace Space2Health network members Deutsches Forschungszentrum für Künstliche Intelligenz (DFKI) and the Universität Duisburg-Essen shows:   The NoGravEx #exoskeleton simulates #microgravity. Until now, #astronauts have had to train for their outdoor missions in #weightlessness during parabolic flights or in a full spacesuit underwater. With the NoGravEx upper body exoskeleton, the weight of the arms can now be compensated so that they feel weightless to the person wearing the exoskeleton. This type of technology can also be used in #rehabilitation to provide even more individualised support to physically impaired patients (e.g. after a stroke).   Want to know more? 👉 Watch this video 🎥: https://lnkd.in/edmiiPuJ   About INNOspace Space2Health: The German space and healthcare sectors are well known for their innovations and are therefore an important part of Germany’s industrial portfolio. Both sectors share a large number of key strategic technologies. The INNOspace network Space2Health is a module of the successful INNOspace initiative and opens up a communication platform between the space and healthcare industries. Founded in 2020, the network now counts more than 200 member organisations.

We won the Health-X Fellowship Prize at the 5th Health-X dataLOFT Innovation Forum last week in Berlin! As part of this recognition, VEIL.AI will collaborate with leading experts from the Health-X dataLOFT consortium. Furthermore, this will open doors to integrate the VEIL.AI Anonymization Engine (VAE) into the Health-X dataLOFT platform. Health-X dataLOFT is tasked with developing a platform suitable for the emerging European Health Data Space (EHDS) in German and Europe. The Health-X Fellowship supports the development and scaling of innovative health solutions - like VEIL.AI’s - that align with the goals of the EHDS and Gaia-X Association for Data and Cloud (AISBL) (Gaia-X Hub Germany). VEIL.AI is capable of providing robust anonymization solutions and tools for GDPR and EHDS-compliant verification of data anonymity, supporting various use cases from research applications to AI/ML model training. The integration of VAE into the Health-X DataLOFT platform will promote secondary data usage and marks a strategic advancement in managing and protecting health data in Europe. By enabling more efficient and secure use of anonymized data, VEIL.AI will drive research and innovation, ensuring that the Health-X platform remains at the forefront of data privacy and utility in alignment with EHDS.

Yesterday, Verena Wieser successfully presented on the topic "Requirements Management: Building a Robust Framework for Secure Software" at MedConf 2024.🎉 Below are some valuable insights from the presentation: 📌A good requirements management is the base for the development of safe and secure medical device software. Many problems that occur with medical device software are the results of unclear and faulty requirements that led to misunderstandings by the involved stakeholders. ❌ 📌The EARS methodology provides a set of key words and simple rooms to depict requirements in a simple and understandable way in English language. 📌A term that is strongly related to requirements management is traceability. Its aim is to provide evidence from the initial idea to the delivered software. This includes traceability between system requirements, software requirement, risks, risk control measures, verification, and validation activities. 🔗 📌The obvious way to document this traceability is to create a trace matrix but this can get an exhaustive and error-prone activity. 📌It is more efficient to use the various tools that are available on the market to support requirement management. The choice of the right tool depends on the team and the established processes. Each tool has its advantages and disadvantages that need to be considered in software tool validation as required by ISO 13485 before productive use. 🛠️ 👉 For more insights, contact us for consultancy: info@lorit-consultancy.com 📧 #MedConf2024 #RequirementsManagement #ISO13485 #LoritConsultancy

What is the process that leads to a successful reimbursement of a #MedicalDevice or #IVD via #SelectiveContracts? More than 50 people attended yesterday's #4CCloseup webinar, where Hans-Juergen Stein from mentalis shared his first-hand experience on this topic and, together with Ingo Hämmerle, answered all the questions of the participating #MedTech founders.   Here are our key learnings:   ✅ Approach health insurers early and don't wait until your product is market- ready! ✅ Have a concept (incl. #evidence) ready as to why the health insurance company must reimburse your product! ✅ After a contract is signed, the real work begins: the product must actually be prescribed to make your business work!   What are your key learnings when it comes to #reimbursement?   -- Your startup needs help with setting up the right market access strategy and implementing it? We support you with individual #4CServices, just let us know your needs 📧 info@mi-incubator.com

Are you thinking about switching from #Jira to #OpenProject? 🔄 Then you might want to read the story of "Was hab'​ ich?"​ gGmbH, a German non-profit organization in the #healthcare sector. In our latest blog article, Ansgar Jonietz describes how his organization used to organize itself using postcards, then managed projects in Jira for a long time and finally switched to OpenProject on-premises. How did this migration from Jira to OpenProject work? And how well did the employees cope with this change? 👀 Read the whole story here: https://lnkd.in/eQ75y2SH #testimonial #projectmanagement #opensource #software #migration #userstory #taskmanagement #onpremises #enterprise

A great post from Stephen Gilbert which includes an explainer and link to his most recent paper in Nature Reviews: Cancer. As we are all no doubt aware, current medical device regulation essentialy prevents generalist AI and LLMs from being used in medical devices. Sure, lots of people are developing products for use in the healthcare setting, but they are chosen with great care to ensure they don't fall foul. Meanwhile, countless patients and clinicians are making use of LLMs in an uncontrolled manner. How do we square this circle? The paper, a neat 2 pages, covers this nicely. Perhaps we reign in LLMs to narrow use cases? Maybe we develop a mandatory human in the loop solution and wrestle with automation bias? What IS clear is that blocking GenAI in healthcare isn't a long term strategy.

This is really interesting. We won the Health-X dataLOFT prize in Berlin. Really excited to start collaboration. Especially interesting is the EHDS angle. EHDS legislation was accepted in the European Parliament a couple of weeks ago. Centric in the legislation is how to facilitate secondary use of health data while safeguarding people's privacy. Health-X dataLOFT is tasked with developing a platform suitable for that in Germany and Europe. We are very excited to be a part of that journey!
