Aiosyn Launches Kidney Image Analysis Services Through Its NephroPath Platform to Accelerate Drug Development Studies

Aiosyn, a pioneering medical software company specializing in AI-powered pathology solutions for cancer and kidney disease, announced the introduction of its NephroPath platform. By partnering with Aiosyn, CROs, biopharma, and researchers can accelerate the development of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) therapies using new and quantitative insights offered through Nephropath’s Kidney Image Analysis Services.

The NephroPath platform provides computational pathology algorithms for a detailed evaluation of histological biomarkers in kidney biopsies, including segmentation of main tissue classes, quantification of interstitial fibrosis, precise localization and quantification of glomeruli, and more. These AI-powered analyses effectively overcome the constraints of current semi-quantitative scoring systems, which are often based on subregions of the kidney and are subject to observer variability.

NephroPath’s AI-based quantification provides reproducible, consistent, fast, and more detailed scoring of renal pathology (imaging) biomarkers in preclinical and clinical specimens* compared to human reading. This can accelerate preclinical and clinical development projects. The algorithms will also be instrumental in new CKD biomarker discovery projects.

Through Nephropath’s Kidney Image Analysis Services, Aiosyn offers whole kidney quantification and custom kidney analyses. Aiosyn’s data-rich analysis derived from slide data provides per-slide tissue quantifications and detailed dataset characterization. Findings are delivered in a comprehensive image analysis report, including biomarker scores and visual results.

“Using Aiosyn's NephroPath platform we provide researchers with a new and powerful technique to complement the CKD drug development toolbox,” said Patrick de Boer, CEO of Aiosyn.

CKD is forecasted to grow to the fifth predominant cause of mortality by 2040 (1), and with over 90+ new CKD therapies in development, there is a need for advanced tools that can accelerate drug development and enhance diagnostic accuracy.

In a recent preclinical study, conducted in collaboration with a leading preclinical research organization (CRO), the NephroPath platform demonstrated its effectiveness in segmenting kidney tissue classes (Figure 1) and quantifying glomerulosclerosis and tubular damage on whole rat kidneys. A positive correlation was observed between the glomerulosclerosis and tubular scores and kidney damage across all groups (the study abstract will be presented at the upcoming CKD Summit in Boston from March 19-21).

Geoswift and SKUx Announce Strategic Partnership to Develop a First-of-Its-Kind Programmable Stablecoin Commerce Network29.6.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release

Bridging digital assets, traditional finance, enterprise treasury, and agentic commerce through global programmable money infrastructure Geoswift and SKUx announced a groundbreaking partnership to develop a next-generation programmable stablecoin commerce network. This strategic collaboration bridges digital assets, traditional finance, and real-world commerce at a global scale, representing a "one-of-one" opportunity by combining Geoswift's global infrastructure with SKUx's specialized item-level controls directly within point-of-sale (POS) systems. While enterprise stablecoin usage continues to accelerate globally, governments, enterprises, payment networks, and AI-driven commerce platforms are increasingly seeking programmable payment infrastructure that can bridge digital assets with real-world commerce. The innovation goes far beyond treasury management or even enabling consumers to spend stablecoins at retail locations. Instead, it unlocks true "programmable money" with embedded

Esri Sponsors Smithsonian Exhibition Showcasing Natural and Cultural Objects from All 50 States29.6.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release

From These Lands Exhibition Highlights Connections Between People, Place, and Natural World Through Physical Specimens and Digital Maps Esri is the lead sponsor of the Smithsonian's From These Lands exhibition and developed maps powered by ArcGIS and a digital companion to extend engagement beyond the museum. The exhibition features more than 600 specimens and cultural artifacts from all 50 states, Washington, DC, and US territories, drawn from the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History's collection of over 148 million objects. Designed around themes of connection, diversity, and discovery, the exhibit explores how landscapes, ecosystems, and cultural traditions shape one another across regions and time. Animated mapping experiences enable visitors to explore topography, biomes, geology, migration patterns, and watersheds, revealing relationships across the continent. ArcGIS StoryMaps transforms the physical exhibit into an accessible digital narrative, extending its reach to
