Researchers in Britain, led by a Greek woman from the diaspora, have developed an innovative artificial intelligence system that can recognize the first signs of dementia in the brain before patients even have the first symptoms and before neurologists can make a diagnosis. The system, which does not need more than one imaging of the brain to draw conclusions, thanks to a special algorithm, has already begun to be tested clinically, although it is too early to say when it will be possible to use it in practice.

A new chapter in development opens today for Greek firm from Patras Think Silicon, which since May 2020 is a member of the American Applied Materials group, one of the largest materials technology companies in the world.

OECD and partner countries, including Greece, formally adopted the first set of intergovernmental policy guidelines on Artificial Intelligence (AI), agreeing to uphold international standards that aim to ensure AI systems are designed to be robust, safe, fair and trustworthy.
