# Projects

PhenoPad
We develop PhenoPad, an AI-based clinical tool enables the digitization of highly structured patient data and facilitates patient interaction while providing physicians with enough freedom to perform their jobs efficiently. We implemented a prototype and test it in real clinical settings.
