Born only in June 2018, the spin-off participated in the business plan competition with ARIADNE, its first product summarizing ten years of research by its team of inventors including the professors Caterina La Porta, Stefano Zapperi and Luigi Orsi as well as two post-docs, Maria Rita Fumagalli and Francesc Font Clos.

“ARIADNE is an innovative platform that can treat cancer heterogeneity”

explain Caterina La Porta and Stefano Zapperi. “Using artificial intelligence (AI), ARIADNE is able to integrate a large set of transcriptomes describing the tumor phenotype from bioptic samples of oncological patients, allowing for precision medicine. The platform could also be extremely useful for pharmacological research since using the same strategy it is possible to construct maps during trials and reduce costs by identifying in shorter time the most effective drugs.”
