Novartis has signed a multi-year collaboration agreement with RetinAI to utilise the latter’s IT solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support multiple projects in ophthalmology and digital health.
RentinAI is a Swiss biotech company focused on developing software solutions to accelerate clinics, research and pharmaceutical workflows using advanced machine learning and computer vision.
The first project to be carried out under the new Novartis agreement will support an international clinical study involving patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
