Karbasiafshar and his co-founders started Moichor at Penn State University and pursued the commercialization of their AI-powered diagnostic company through some of the opportunities available through the university. But, by using computational tools and AI, we can actually train programs to recognize bird and reptile red and white blood cells, and thrombocytes that other automated analyzers can't."Compared to current manual complete blood count techniques, Moichor is able to achieve ten times less variability in its results.
