The first prototypes of applications for predicting the risk of bedsores and recognizing sepsis already show very promising results. This platform would, for example, increase the prediction of bedsores risk by 15 to 20% in hospitalized elderly patients at CHUV and support healthcare teams in implementing preventive measures in real time.

A 3rd SDSC office at the Paul Scherrer Institute

Another office for the Swiss Data Science Center will be established at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI. To this end, the ETH Board has approved an increase of five million Swiss francs in the budget of the strategic focus area Data Science. The main aim of this expansion is to help improve the evaluation and processing of the growing amounts of data from large and complex research infrastructures, sensor networks, and databases at PSI and the other three federal research institutes, Empa, WSL, and Eawag. The resources and expertise will be available to all institutes in the ETH Domain.
