The FIRST Project "Gëstu-Jangoroy-dërët (Blood Disorder Detection in Wolof)" is a three-year initiative (2025–2028) based in Senegal that leverages artificial intelligence to enable early detection of hematological disorders—such as anemia and leukemia—through advanced analysis of blood-test and imaging data. By integrating AI-driven diagnostic support into existing healthcare workflows, the project seeks to improve early diagnosis rates, reduce misclassification errors, personalize treatment plans, and generate high-quality data for ongoing medical research. Partnering with CERPAD, Université Gaston Berger (UFR Santé and UFR Sciences Appliquées et Technologies), and EPITA, the team focuses particularly on developing and interpreting deep-learning models tailored to the Senegalese context.
