One consequence is the potentially extensive spread of the virus by asymptomatic individuals. In order to more easily assess whether or not testing is needed, this project proposes to use Raman spectroscopy and artificial-intelligence algorithms to estimate an individual’s total viral load and, if necessary, then determine whether the coronavirus is present. Ultimately, this could make it possible to significantly reduce the number of tests to be carried out, a benefit for remote regions or regions with limited infrastructure.<\/p>\n Funding amounts: [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1587049662276{padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #dddddd !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]Philippe Doyon-Poulin (IVADO Researcher and Assistant Professor, Polytechnique) and Philippe Jouvet (Pediatric Intensivist, CHU Sainte-Justine and Full Clinical Professor, Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al)<\/strong><\/p>\n In a pandemic, the number of intensive care inpatients increases rapidly and the management of medical resources is critical to the success of care.

However, when the number of cases becomes too high, individual follow-up becomes impossible, making it very useful to track the virus at the genetic level. To this end, this project proposes a phylogenetic analysis of the virus, including the ability to link locally sampled cases to each other and to link them to cases in other countries. In this way, it is possible to estimate the virus\u2019s movements and transmission speed. It will then be easier to determine its rate of introduction from outside the country and to assess the proportion of local or community transmission within populations.<\/p>\n IVADO funding amount: $15,000[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text] [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1587476131852{padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]David Ardia (R<\/strong>esearcher, IVADO and Assistant Professor, HEC Montr\u00e9al) and Emanuele Guidotti (PhD Student, Universit\u00e9 de Neuch\u00e2tel)<\/strong><\/p>\n Numerous COVID-19-related databases exist, but no virtual platform currently incorporates a significant proportion of these sources.
