Onescope awarded a CHF 1.2M grant from Innosuisse
19.03.2024We are thrilled to share that we have been awarded an Innouisse Innovation Project grant of CHF 1.2M!
This significant milestone from Switzerland’s leading innovation agency marks a critical step forward in our mission to revolutionize the diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases.
This grant not only provides a vote of confidence in our technology but also reflects the power of collaboration with our esteemed research partners at HUG and EPFL.
Thanks to Innosuisse, we are accelerating towards groundbreaking product and clinical developments. The funding allows us to finalize Pneumoscope’s development and fine-tune our AI model for automated respiratory disease classification. In parallel, we are developing a new algorithm for automated exacerbation severity assessment in childhood asthma.
Stay tuned for more updates as we further develop the Pneumoscope and embark on many other exciting projects ahead.

18.10.2018Un stéthoscope digital intelligent pour le diagnostic de la pneumonie de l’enfant.
La pneumonie est la principale cause de décès chez les enfants de moins de cinq ans dans le monde. Chaque minute, la pneumonie tue deux enfants de moins de cinq ans. La plupart de ces décès surviennent dans les pays à faible et moyen revenu, où il y a un manque important de travailleurs de la santé, d’infrastructures de soins de santé et de technologies de soins, pour le diagnostic de la pneumonie.

02.06.2023DeepBreath—automated detection of respiratory pathology from lung auscultation in 572 pediatric outpatients across 5 countries.
The interpretation of lung auscultation is highly subjective and relies on non-specific nomenclature. Computer-aided analysis has the potential to better standardize and automate evaluation. We used 35.9 hours of auscultation audio from 572 pediatric outpatients to develop DeepBreath : a deep learning model identifying the audible signatures of acute respiratory illness in children.
