Hackathon? Hospiton? Still confused? 🤔 Let’s break it down: 💡 Hackathon: A hackathon is a fast-paced event where creative minds and experts from different fields come together to solve real-world problems. It’s a marathon of ideas – coding, brainstorming, and building solutions in just a few days. And after all that hard work? Teams pitch their solutions to a panel of judges for a chance to win exciting prizes and take their ideas to the next level! 🏆💻 🦸♂️ Hospiton: Now, imagine a hackathon with a purpose – a healthcare hackathon. At Hospiton, we focus on one mission: to innovate, create, and find new ways to prevent cancer. Doctors, developers, marketers, and engineers team up to hack cancer prevention. It’s about saving lives through innovation – and yes, your ideas can make a real difference. ✨ So, what’s left?

The fight against cancer takes more than courage - it takes innovation, collaboration, and a shared mission. 💡 At the Hospiton.lt #CancelCancer hackathon, I had the privilege of seeing teams come together to tackle some of healthcare’s toughest challenges. Among them, Cervixel stood out with creativity and dedication, earning their first-place win with a solution that could transform lives. 🏆 The team behind Cervixel: Justina Znotinaitė, Gabija Medvedevaite, Muhammad Javad Muhammadi, MD, Hamid Gharehbaghi, and Saeed Kaboli - they showed us all what’s possible when brilliant minds unite around a common goal. Their dedication, creativity, and teamwork were nothing short of inspiring. 🙌 Now they embark on the next chapter of their journey - continuing product development and testing at University of Cambridge! 🤩 This event was about building a future where innovation saves lives. A massive thanks to Hospiton.lt for creating this platform and to the organizers, mentors, and sponsors who make these kind of movements possible. It's proving that impactful solutions can emerge, not only in Lithuanian Healthcare system but in the global context as well, when purpose-driven individuals come together. 🌐 📌 Organizers and Sponsors: Hospiton.lt | Lithuanian University of Health Sciences | MJJ fondas | MSD Baltics | BENU | IFPA - Inovatyvios farmacijos pramonės asociacija | Baltic Sandbox | Valstybės duomenų agentūra #Cervixel #CancelCancer #HealthcareInnovation #Teamwork #FutureOfHealth #Hospiton2024 Read more about it in the article left in the comments.

It was an honor 🙏 to present neotiv at the World Economic Forum #WEF25 🌍 in Davos today. The World Economic Forum embodies the immense potential to connect, collaborate, and create meaningful impact for people across the globe—values that also drive us at neotiv 🧠. In my presentation, I shared three key takeaways that inspire💡our work at neotiv: 1) Early⏳detection of Alzheimer’s disease is critical, especially with respect to mild cognitive impairment. Solutions like neotiv empower this early detection, providing hope and actionable insights. 2) Thanks to long and rigorous research 🧬 phases, pharmaceutical advancements now offer the first disease-modifying treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. Early detection remains essential to ensure the right patients receive the right treatment at the right time. The patient is key! 3) Alzheimer’s disease is not just a challenge for patients and their families—it is a collective challenge for society and the health-care systems worldwide. Combining 🤲 forces with all stakeholders is vital to address this issue holistically. The #WEF25 serves as an incredible platform to unite these elements. Addressing global challenges like Alzheimer’s disease requires belief, vision, and partnership—values that resonate deeply with neotiv’s mission 🚀

Securing early-stage funding for non-university spin-outs is one of the toughest challenges innovators face, especially when attempting prospective or proof-of-concept (POC) studies. Yet, these studies are pivotal—they provide the first real insights into a technology's feasibility in a clinical context and its effectiveness within specific patient cohorts. Without this foundation, future progress stalls before it can even begin. This struggle is all too familiar for many early-stage companies, which is why I’m passionate about advocating for POC funding as a catalyst for groundbreaking research and transformative advancements in disease diagnosis. A huge thank you to @Anaid Benitez for fostering collaboration and support in this critical space.
