The EU-funded KConnect project has developed innovative online medical search and analysis tools, enabling researchers to achieve clearer insights into the effectiveness of specific medical interventions and ultimately leading to more optimised treatments.
“The key success of the KConnect project has been to make effective online medical search tools accessible to medical researchers and the public,” says KConnect (Khresmoi Multilingual Medical Text Analysis, Search and Machine Translation Connected in a Thriving Data-Value Chain) project coordinator Allan Hanbury from the Vienna University of Technology in Austria. “The project results will now be further developed and should allow better insight into the effectiveness of medical interventions, as well as providing more reliable access for citizens to online medical information.” Project partners are currently working with commercial clients to create specific search solutions.
