TORONTO, Feb. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DiagnaMed Holdings Corp. (“DiagnaMed” or the “Company”) (CSE: DMED), a digital health generative AI company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a license agreement with the University of Miami (“UM”) for the development and commercialization of intellectual property of a novel brain health platform for the evaluation, diagnosis and monitoring of brain health, such as Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (“ADRD”), which will be incorporated with CERVAI™, the Company’s proprietary Brain Health Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) Platform leveraging Generative AI. The UM brain health platform was invented by James E. Galvin, M.D., M.P.H., Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine and the founding Director of the Comprehensive Center for Brain Health at the University of Miami Health System.
“We continue to strengthen the potential of CERVAI™, our proprietary Brain Health AI Platform leveraging Generative AI, by integrating a clinically validated novel brain health solution from the University of Miami, which will allow us to evaluate overall brain health and provide actionable data to implement personalized interventions for cognitive decline for the millions of people suffering from mental health and neurodegenerative diseases,” said Fabio Chianelli, Chairman of DiagnaMed.
The UM brain health platform features various novel brain function assessments and tools to evaluate overall brain health, ADRD risk factors, cognitive performance, and evidence of risk of further decline and future impairment, which are validated against clinical gold standards of normal and impaired cognitive function. The UM brain health platform can intake the inputs of these assessments and output a patient risk score, from which tailored interventions, including medications and clinical trial enrollment, can be implemented in at-risk individuals to decrease the development or progression of cognitive decline.
With the integration of UM’s brain health platform, CERVAI™ will add the ability to delay or prevent the onset of cognitive decline, thereby improving the quality of life for patients and caregivers, providing a diagnostic application which can comprehensively and objectively produce a risk assessment to inform a tailored intervention and enhance enrollment in prevention studies and clinical trials of disease-modifying therapies.
