The Athena Award 2022 was awarded on October 25th to Stratipath, an AI-based decision support system for prognostic analysis of breast cancer directly from microscope images. The purpose of the Athena Award is to reward and recognize research that has been carried out in collaboration between healthcare, academia, and industry. Stratipath meets the criteria for the award very well and is an exciting example of how artificial intelligence can be used in medicine to provide equitable access to diagnosis and treatment.
