Vision
The CharakDT, Human Digital Twin Platform for Healthcare developed by IIT Indore and DRISHTI CPS is a significant step in bringing these ancient principles into the modern healthcare landscape. By focusing on individual, centric and pathy, agnostic (meaning not limited to any specific medical system) digital healthcare support, this platform aims to leverage technology to provide personalized and preventive care.
Problem
To develop a unified Human Digital Twin platform that integrates multi, source healthcare data for predictive, preventive, personalized, and accessible healthcare delivery across the continuum of care.
