Prof. Hanna Renvall, leader of WP2 in AI-Mind, listed in the top 10 influencers in the health sector

10/12/2021

On 10 December, the leading Finnish medical magazine Mediuutiset has published the list of the most influential people who impacted the health sector in 2021. “Care and Treatment Developers” is one of 10 different categories considered in the ranking.
For her work within the AI-Mind project, Prof. Hanna Renvall from Helsinki University Hospital (HUS) was recognised by the Finnish medical magazine as one of the top 10 Care and Treatment Developers in the health sector in 2021. AI-Mind aims at developing Artificial Intelligence (AI) -based tools for people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) who are at risk of developing dementia. In AI-Mind, different methods are used to study brain functionality including electroencephalogram (EEG) and magnetoencephalogram (MEG).
In the Work Package 2 led by Prof. Renvall, which includes research on brain data extraction, teams are bringing together and implementing different analysing methods for data collected through EEG and MEG screening of people with MCI. One of the strengths and opportunities of the AI-Mind project is the amount of neuroimaging data to be analysed, which is often a bottleneck for developing novel and functional neuroimaging tools for clinical use.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 964220.
