A Vision to Transform
Healthcare through AI
Our vision is more than an idea. It's a tangible roadmap to transforming cancer diagnosis and monitoring through our smart computational cytology platform.
This solution aids critical decision support during clinical diagnosis and monitoring to:
Improve clinical outcomes
Reduce healthcare burdens
Operating at the Intersection of Computer Science and Healthcare
In 2018, AIxMed's founders blended their divergent, respective backgrounds to break through the traditional cytology status quo. Samuel Chen brings AI technology ingenuity and leadership experience from ASUS and Compal. Dr. Tien-Jen Liu offers medical expertise as a trained physician and serial medtech entrepreneur.
Their combined diversity of thought will make a meaningful impact in healthcare, with intuitive commercialized tools to simplify clinical workflows and richly strengthen the quality of healthcare.
