Bengaluru Startup Uses Dogs and AI for Early Cancer Detection Trial
Bengaluru-based startup Dognosis is training dogs to detect early signs of cancer by sniffing human breath samples. Using breeds like beagles and labradors, the company combines canine olfactory skills with AI and sensors to analyze dogs' reactions, aiming for a non-invasive, low-cost screening method. Supported by investors including Accel India, Dognosis has begun a large-scale trial involving 10,000 participants to validate this approach as an accessible cancer detection tool in India.
