J & K Startup 'O-Health' Collaborates With US-Based Massachusetts Institute Of Technology

(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) Jammu- A Jammu-based digital healthcare StartUp, O-Health, has entered into a research collaboration with the US-based Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Founded by Arunoday Singh, O-Health is one of the country's earliest health StartUps of its kind which is at the forefront of leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and digital platforms to deliver healthcare in under-served and remote areas.

The StartUp has already reached over 30,000 patients through its tele-health services across the remote areas of Kathua, Hiranagar, Billawar, Doda and Ramnagar regions, bridging critical healthcare gaps in difficult terrains, according to its founder.

The founder of this StartUp, Singh is a“son of soil” who holds a Bachelor of Technology degree in engineering, an MBA and also a postgraduate degree in health economics from the prestigious London School of Economics (LSE).

He served as a manager in the German Deutsche Bank before resigning from that job and bringing together a group of like-minded youngsters to raise the StartUp venture.

The new research partnership with MIT's Computer Science and AI Lab (CSAIL) will focus on co-developing cutting-edge AI tools for predictive diagnostics, remote patient monitoring and personalized healthcare delivery-designed especially for rural populations with limited access to doctors and hospitals.

“This collaboration marks a defining chapter not just for O-Health, but for the entire region of Jammu & Kashmir,” said Singh.

It's proof that world-class innovation can grow from the grassroots-and serve them, too, he added.

The agreement includes joint research projects and team engagement programs between O-Health and MIT, with O-Health's initial implementation planned in high-altitude and remote regions of North India.

MIT is a premier research university in Massachusetts, United States. Established in 1861, MIT has played a significant role in the development of many areas of modern technology and science.
