🩺 At Lifen, we believe that everyone deserves high-quality, accessible, and financially sustainable healthcare. Lifen’s digital solutions are the missing puzzle piece for a truly patient-centric care system. We break down silos within the industry and support healthcare research and innovation by making health data accessible to all stakeholders: healthcare providers, patients, governments, digital health apps, and clinical research centers.

🔗 How? We solve the interoperability puzzle so digital health innovators and healthcare facilities don't have to. With our secured FHIR platform and software solutions, customers get to collect and share health data at scale, as well as seamlessly integrate it in with primary data systems.

🔮 Lifen is also a pioneer in Artificial Intelligence: we build algorithms that reliably and automatically structure and integrate health information for a truly complete and dependable record system, eliminating hundreds of thousands worth of hours of routine administrative tasks.

Born in Paris and reborn all over Europe, we are more than 170 Lifeners committed to bringing the digital revolution to the healthcare sector. Lifen is always on the lookout for new talent 👱🏻‍♀️👨‍🚀

Providing daily over a million real-time predictions to our user base, the AI team has been instrumental in launching our flagship product, Lifen Sending, which facilitates the seamless exchange of medical notes among healthcare practitioners in 800 healthcare organisations in France. Over the past 6 years dealing with Medical Data, our team has built a strong expertise in building robust models that deliver actionable value to our users by accelerating laborious human-intensive administrative workloads with high standards in terms of security and privacy.

Our current team (3 ML Engineers) has built Layout Extraction Models for extracting text from documents and preprocessing them for downstream tasks, Visual Explainable NLP Tools for the support team & users, Pseudonymisation algorithms to be able to work on algorithms without exposing private medical data and finally our core Information Extraction Models from documents (Classification, NER, etc.).

Lifen is now investing in a new offer for Healthcare Organisations and academic & industry Research Partners that will tap into our expertise in dealing with medical documents and Lifen’s Reach (800 Healthcare Organisation & 3M documents sent per month) to structure real-world research-grade data from the medical reports handled by Lifen: Lifen Cohort. We already have a proof of concept working with generative AI on a first production project. It enhances this even more human-intensive workload of structuring data from health records to change the scale and quality at which medical research can be done!
