We are a Munich-based startup building a digital twin platform for respiratory diseases – a monolithic digital toolset that elevates the actions of decision makers in healthcare and life sciences through physics-based simulation, AI, and data science. In the hands of industrial users, it fosters their understanding of pulmonary drug delivery to inform, accelerate and de-risk trial design and execution. In the hands of physicians, it will offer personalized treatment perspectives to improve the odds of survival and recovery in millions of cases of respiratory complications each year, such as Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
