The ELEGANT NORTH project aims to create cross-border data platform and advance personalised medicine for rare diseases, starting with childhood leukemia.
ELEGANT NORTH – Exploring Leukemia: Education Genetics and Technology; New Option for Rare Diseases Towards Health.
Abzu is proud to announce its participation in the ELEGANT NORTH project, a pioneering initiative aimed at transforming the landscape of rare disease treatment in the Nordic region. Abzu will contribute its expertise in artificial intelligence and bioinformatics to develop cutting-edge algorithms for analyzing complex genetic data, with a focus on improving patient outcomes.
The ELEGANT NORTH project seeks to address the critical challenges faced by patients with rare diseases, including childhood cancer, by establishing a cross-border data platform and fostering collaboration between healthcare providers and technology innovators.
“At Abzu, we believe that AI has the power to revolutionize healthcare, particularly in the realm of rare diseases where data is often scarce and complex,” said Victor Galindo, CEO of Abzu. “We are excited to partner with ELEGANT NORTH to develop innovative algorithms that can identify meaningful patterns in genetic data and ultimately lead to more personalized and effective treatments.”
The project’s key objectives include:
- Establishing a cross-border data platform: Creating a secure and compliant platform for sharing clinical and genetic data on rare diseases.
- Strengthening cross-sectoral collaboration: Fostering partnerships between healthcare providers and private companies to develop innovative technological solutions for personalized medicine.
- Promoting multidisciplinary education and research: Creating new links between health and tech sciences to advance knowledge and expertise in rare disease management.
- Developing new bioinformatics methods: Creating methods that enable identification of the characteristics (clinical and genetic) that can predict the progress of the individual patient.
ELEGANT NORTH (EN; Exploring Leukemia: Education Genetics and Technology; New Option for Rare Diseases Towards Health) is a collaborative project focused on improving the diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases in the Nordic region.
The ELEGANT NORTH project will involve the collection of clinical data and blood samples for genetic analysis from children with ALL and other rare diseases. Abzu will work closely with other project partners to ensure the seamless integration of its algorithms into the data platform.
The project runs until August 2026.
