The integration between the hardware and the #AI in the #apatch will enable us to manage pandemics fast. We won’t have to rush to make new devices, since we can train the patches remotely.

”It's actually like having a smartphone”

A-Patch project coordinator Hossam Haick gave some insights about our skin patch and its potential impact on the fight to #EndTB!

Check out the episode 17 of CORDIS_EU’s CORDiscovery podcast 👇

Can you imagine a skin patch test that is effective, cheap & can transmit infection data to healthcare workers remotely?

Hossam Haick & his team made one. He’s on #CORDIScovery & talks about this innovative device that helps control #tuberculosis & more.▶️https://t.co/1WlqelnFT8

Since #tuberculosis is still stigmatized, how can we ensure that those who test positive for #TB at home with the #apatch will seek medical care?

It's #TBFactTuesday!
Did you know⁉️ In 2020, 1.1 million children fell ill with #TB globally. Child and adolescent TB is often overlooked by health providers and can be difficult to diagnose and treat.

🌏We must continue to fight to #EndTB everywhere.

How can #digitalhealth tools improve health #equality?

”#apatch brings the clinics onto the human body, and as such you will have it as a wearable device that could extend the availability of the clinics to the people.”

#Tuberculosis is preventable & curable – yet 9 900 000 people fell ill from it in 2020 & 1.5 million died.

What’s the EU doing to curb the spread & improve our understanding of the illness’s nature?
