Viktoria1.0

Viktoria1.0 is the first patient-led campaign from the Hippo AI Foundation.
It started as an awareness campaign, which informed affected people what is possible if we unite our data and make it accessible to train AI models. People worldwide will be able to get a life-saving and accurate diagnosis. This is only possible if we, as a global society, ensure that the generated knowledge stays open and is not getting privatized.

The young Hippo AI Foundation  empowered me to realise my vision, to provide everyone with the same level of care, I received as a patient. I collaborated with the Non-Profit-Organisation based in Berlin to launch viktoriaonezero.org. The project aims to become the most comprehensive open data set on breast cancer pathology. Viktoria1.0 aims to give humans worldwide access to an accurate diagnosis with open AI. The intense collaboration led me to join the Hippo AI Foundation as a co-founder.

The Hippo AI Foundation brings people and data together to establish artificial medical intelligence as digital commons. It aims to make digital knowledge and medical insights gained through Artificial Intelligence from data altruism freely available to researchers and businesses. With the open-source-based approach, more data and AI building blocks are shared as digital commons. Through the collaboration of dedicated experts, they publish it with their copyleft license, which ensures that the data is available to the global community and its derivatives, such as the AI source code. Hippo AI aims to accelerate innovation and balance global inequities in healthcare through this approach.

 

 

AskMarie

AskMarie is based on the vision to empower people to become the CEO of their health. It helps everyone to understand the science behind their health and well-being.

Every day, around 600 million people search on Google for their health questions. To better understand their diagnosis or treatment or prepare themselves for a doctor’s appointment. But the results are not good because the answers need to be more trustworthy, and often the information conflicts. AskMarie is an AI-driven Online Health Information Seeking Tool. The basic idea is to use Large Language Models (like GPT3 or Bloom) to deliver people a summarized and easy-to-understand answers to their questions based on the Top 3 research papers. They can compare credible scientific knowledge easily ad-free, unbiased, and immediate.

Together with Lilla Szulovsky I worked on this idea during the autumn Antler cohort 2022.

White Paper Open Gender Data

As part of the Open Heroines community, I work on an Open Gender Data Guide for a non-expert audience.

In the Open Gender Data Lab, the need was identified to build bridges between open data experts and organisations dealing with gender issues without data knowledge. The belief is that these organisations want to use data for their causes and goals but are often unsure how to implement gender data projects.

The guide aims to empower activists, NGO professionals, and civil servants without technical expertise by providing them with language, tools, and means to produce, analyse and use data from a feminist intersectional perspective.
