Earlier this year a team led by MediChain founder Dr Baker found hints of a radical new way of testing for and predicting Covid-19. Ultimately investigation by our Complex Systems Research Division led to a method called Characteristic Leucocyte Differential Count. The method was published earlier this year in the Journal Life Research. Cost per test is 10% of that of current tests and because it uses existing blood test infrastructure with no need for extra staff or reagents in can increase test rates by a factor of 500% overnight.
It's been featured on BBC Television South Today (20 October 2020); Across the country on Heart Radio and in the newspapers The initial investigation won the global Coronahack in London (April 2020), beating hundreds of scientists from around the world including "The brightest minds in the fields of medicine and artificial intelligence . . . 500 Health experts; 500 Data scientists using Real time Covid-19 global health data"
The UK government has awarded MediChain Ltd. funding from Innovate UK to develop a device which clips onto a smartphone to allow CLDC to be applied anywhere at any time by just about anyone.
On 7 Sept 2020 government representatives told the Medichain team that they receive tens of thousands of applications and that accepting Medichain UK’s offering made it One of the top companies at a global level. We believe that judges were excited about the impact that we could have on both the national and global economy and public health.
Medichain were also finalists in the "COVID-19 edition" of the US National Pediatric Medical Device Competition in Washington, DC supported by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
Using this technique, and linked with live access to national data using MediChain's Athena system, it is possible to predict exactly where the new outbreaks will occur and lockdown to prevent them, reducing the period of lockdown and preventing second and future waves of COVID-19.
MediChain and its sister company Hypatia are currently working to develop a pin-prick blood sample test for Covid-19 that anyone can use with a smartphone.
Predict COVID-19 for 10% of the current cost and scale up to hundreds of thousands of tests a day (or more) using existing infrastructure
Low Volume Home Test for Covid-19. Test anywhere anytime and get the results in minutes. No expensive, unreliable antibody tests.
Keep doctors and patients safe from contamination. Get the data that you need and don't muddle through with Zoom or Skype
Based on over 10 years of conceptual development and two years of concerted effort and direct development, Athena combines artificial intelligence in a much broader sense than just neural networks with a number of esoteric principles and technologies.

“The main advantage of quantum computing is it can perform any task faster as compared to a classical computer. Because atoms move faster in a quantum computer than a classical computer. In quantum computing qubit is the conventional superposition state and so there is an advantage of exponential speedup which is resulted by handle number of calculations.
Medichain have been experimenting with Quantum Architectures and have working Athena Networks running under Google Tensorflow Quantum. These will execute on actual quantum processors that are supported by Cirq, including Google's Sycamore processor.
By designing a device that allows blood analysis on any smartphone for just a few dollars and a cost per test of pennies we can allow the number of Covid-19 tests to be increased to everyone in a country as often as they need. This could radically reduce lockdown and prevent second and subsequent waves of Covid-19.
