mFluiDx is aiming to develop the world’s lowest cost, automated point-of-care DNA diagnostic assay for small clinics. In small clinics, such as primary care out-patient clinics, disease diagnosis is typically done by observing symptoms or using paper-strip antibody tests. However, these methods have poor sensitivity compared to DNA diagnostics. Highly sensitive molecular DNA tests (PCR) are not often used because of cost and the need to send tests off-site resulting in a slow turnaround time (several days).

Humen, Inc. is a platform for personalized interactive content creation using artificial intelligence. The AI platform permits transferring movements and skills through video, enabling users to share video content. Its popular iOS app, Sway: Magic Dance, uses state of the art AI modelling to generate video. The fun-to-use app generates videos of users based on a source video uploaded by the user doing basic motions, like moving around, kicking their legs or waving their arms. Its PyTorch-backed proprietary GAN Neural Network model creates a digital skeleton of the user....
