Top Diagnostics Startups in 2024

At Dognosis, we are working at the bleeding edge of deep-tech - interspecies brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), cognitive neuroscience, olfactory science, machine learning - to forge a human-canine partnership that will blaze a revolution in the way we practice medicine. Our current team is led by Akash Kulgod and Itamar Bitan and our HQ is in Electronic City, Bangalore. We are backed by deep-tech investors Boost VC and 1517 Fund, as well as the Govt of India and Telangana’s AIC/T-Hub healthtech accelerator. Over the next 5 years we are focused on working with medical detection dogs and AI to develop a breath-based cancer-screening test. Our product is simple - people breathe into a mask for 10 minutes, ship it to our lab, and our dogs identify breath that has cancer-marker volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
