Delirium DynamiX harnesses high-resolution USZ ICU data with on-prem LLMs and novel time-series Additive Bayesian Networks. This interpretable modeling of dynamic causal chains enables earlier delirium detection, targeted interventions, external validation, a co-designed dashboard, and a clinical pilot aiming at ≥20% fewer missed delirium-days. Team Dr. Georg Spinner, ZHAW Life… Read More »Delirium DynamiX
ADHD Data-driven Assessment for Phenotyping & Treatment Prediction ADAPT builds a child‑friendly ADHD assessment that integrates brain signals, movement, and performance data capture into standard neuropsychological tests used in clinics. This data will enable multidimensional patient profiles which predict who benefits from which treatment. The goal: faster, safer, more personalized… Read More »ADAPT
A digital assistant for greater educational equality This project is developing a digital assistant called Chat4All that promotes digital educational equity. Unlike previous intelligent tutors, Chat4All does not just respond selectively to individual tasks, but systematically recognizes patterns in learning behavior and offers adaptive support options based on these patterns.… Read More »Chat4All
Speaker Recognition across Age-Groups for Cantonal Law Enforcement Agencies Criminal activities are increasingly coordinated via telecommunication channels. Telephone fraud generates extensive audio data that make manual analysis impossible. The SAGE project responds to these growing demands on Zurich law enforcement agencies such as the Zurich Forensic Science Institute (FOR) or… Read More »SAGE
A digital health intervention to improve Family health and self-care capacity in Intensive Care UnitS: A human-centered design approach The digital health intervention eFICUS will leverage advances in digital technology and user-centered design to develop timely, equitable, and individualized access to psychoeducational and emotional support for families affected by critical… Read More »eFICUS
Deepfake voice technology enables deceptively realistic voice clones that are used for fraud and manipulation. Neither humans nor machines can reliably detect deepfakes. The project investigates whether brain signals can capture unconscious distinctions between real and artificial voices. Neural measurements are combined with AI methods to develop more robust detection… Read More »Fake or real? Exploring brain signals for deepfake voice detection
Reflective reading with AI LitAI is developing a hybrid learning environment to promote reading that combines eye tracking and AI. The reading tutor LitBot analyses students’ eye movements and responses and provides adaptive support for text comprehension. This understanding is deepened and reflected upon in class to strengthen reading and… Read More »LitAI
Vaccination records in Switzerland are largely paper-based, handwritten, and variable in format, making them susceptible to loss and errors and limiting their usefulness for clinical decision-making and public health surveillance. The project team is developing an AI-powered pipeline to digitize handwritten children’s vaccination cards into CH VACD-conformant HL7 FHIR/JSON data,… Read More »Digital Transformation of Handwritten Child Vaccination Cards to Support Immunization Practice & Surveillance in Switzerland
Enabling real-time medical reasoning through multi-agent workflows The intensive care unit requires rapid decision-making based on large volumes of multimodal patient data. Existing tools typically address isolated tasks without integrating across systems. The project team proposes a multi-agent system for real-time medical reasoning in critical care to reduce cognitive burden… Read More »MERLIN
Development of social support strategies and a smartphone-based intervention This project investigates how social media affects adolescents emotionally and how social support can reduce negative impacts. Together with adolescents and Pro Juventute, we will launch a video-based social media campaign and distribute materials for educators. A co-developed smartphone intervention will… Read More »Adolescents coping with negative emotions induced by social media
