The French consortium AI DReAM

consortium-V1-New-uk

Our mission

Advances in medical imaging provides a more detailed understanding of diseases and their treatments. The healthcare sector is also confronted with an explosion in data. This data can be leveraged to improve diagnosis, care and follow-up of patients, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is key to meeting this challenge.

The AI DReAM Consortium brings together SMEs, start-ups, research labs and clinical centres to accelerate the development and organization of the national AI industry in medical imaging. It actively participates in the international reach of French research
in this field.

A UNIQUE, OPEN AND INTEROPERABLE PLATFORM

In France, we are developing a platform to offer advanced visualisation and 2D/3D annotation tools to a community of industry players, start-ups, researchers and radiologists. This solution is intuitive, modular and accessible through a secure remote connection. This Software Development Kit (SDK) is deployable with data. The platform is also interoperable and supports non-image structured data.

CO-DEVELOPING AI APPLICATIONS IN THE SERVICE OF PRECISION MEDICINE

We work in close collaboration with partners of excellence and as close as possible to the patient's needs to rapidly develop clinical, therapeutic or research applications in the service of precision medicine. This model aims to accelerate the deployment of personalised, preventive, predictive and participatory medicine.

 

These applications will help every day to:

  • advance diagnostics and improve their accuracy
  • optimise and personalise treatment
  • ensure a better patient care pathway

Current projects:

             

Improve diagnostic accuracy and ensure early treatment of primary liver cancer

Goal: to develop a clinical application based on artificial intelligence for the early diagnosis of chronic liver disease and the automatic characterisation of small liver tumors that develop during chronic liver disease.

A project supported by bpifrance

The AI DReAM project has been awarded €13 million in funding under the call for Competitiveness Structuring Projects (PSPC) operated on behalf of the French government by Bpifrance as part of the Programme d’investissements d’avenir (PIA), led by the Secrétariat général pour l’investissement (SGPI). This support program aims at selecting and financing collaborative research development projects structuring competitiveness.

French competitiveness clusters support the project

Medicen Paris Region carried out the emergence of this project following the AMI AIT4MI, then labelled it with Systematic Paris-Region and Lyonbiopôle. These global competitiveness clusters enable the creation, co-branding and funding of quality projects dealing with both deep tech and health.

  • MEDICEN Paris Region is the hub of health innovation in the Paris Region, bringing together nearly 500 members from the entrepreneurial, industrial, clinical and academic spheres to support the development of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic solutions.
  • SYSTEMATIC Paris-Region, the European Deep Tech Cluster, leads an ecosystem of 900 members in the Paris area. It is a catalyst for structuring innovations: Open Source; Digital Trust; Digital Infrastructure and IoT; Digital Engineering; Data Science & AI; Photonics. These technologies in particular address challenges in Healthcare & AgTech.
  • Lyonbiopôle consolidates and structures an innovative health ecosystem of more than 800 members in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. As a global competitiveness cluster, it supports projects and companies in the sector and aims to strengthen the development of technological innovations, products and services to meet the health challenges of tomorrow.
