Our projects

The introduction of new tools, new recommendations or reflections that intervene before or after patient treatment contribute to improving health care. This is the case, for example, when a new rapid diagnostic test enters the market, or when an application allows text messages to be exchanged with a cohort of vulnerable patients for better monitoring of their treatment and their state of health remotely. This is where the MSF Foundation comes in. Our team, completely integrated within MSF, is in direct contact with the real problems observed on the ground. To respond to them, we combine the unique resources and knowledge of MSF with the external skills of partners committed to complementary technologies and knowledge

Antibiogo

Diagnostic tool
A free diagnostic aid application to counter antibiotic resistance.

Antibiogo is a diagnostic aid medical device that aims to help doctors prescribe the most effective antibiotics to their patients. It is available as a free, open source and offline Android application. It allows non-expert laboratory technicians to measure and interpret antibiograms. It provides accurate results that can also be used for monitoring purposes and updating empirical treatments based on actual etiology.

(Artificial Intelligence for Cervical Cancer Screening)

Improving cervical cancer screening through the combined action of a PCR test and Artificial Intelligence

The MSF Foundation and its partners will conduct -upon ethical board validation of MSF and Malawian authorities- this clinical study in Malawi as part of MSF's program for care of women with cervical cancer at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the screening program in Blantyre health centers.

3D Programm

Patient care tool
A solution to equip a greater number of amputated or burned patients with prostheses and compression masks.

The use of 3D technology makes it possible for the best experts to remotely design upper limb prostheses and compression orthoses using digital impressions of face and neck burns of patients treated by MSF in Jordan, Haiti, and Gaza.

UneAlerteEpidemie

Alert-Epidemic

Diagnostic tool
The digitalisation of alert systems for more effective epidemiological response.

Alert-Epidemics is an alert processing and notification system to detect and respond to outbreaks of infectious diseases in precarious situations, including measles, meningitis, cholera and Covid19.

RDTs : Measles and meningitis

Diagnostic tool
Fighting measles and meningitis epidemics through the production of two new rapid diagnostic tests by diaTROPIX

DiaTROPIX is a new platform for the development and production of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) at the Institut Pasteur in Dakar. This non-profit initiative aims to produce new rapid diagnostic tests that can be made available in countries where access to laboratory diagnosis is low or non-existent. 
The MSF Foundation is financing and supporting the development by DiaTROPIX of two new RDTs for measles and meningitis. These two diseases with high epidemic potential represent a real public health problem in countries in which MSF conducts medical programmes, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa.

SMS AFYA-YETU

Patient care tool
Improving follow-up in precarious contexts for patients with a chronic disease.

A program designed to enable people living with a chronic disease, particularly those with medical or social vulnerabilities, to quickly identify and report problems that could lead to a lack of follow-up in their treatment or a deterioration of their state of health.

Mini-Lab

Mini-Lab

Diagnostic tool
A Transportable Laboratory adapted for MSF field interventions.

The purpose of the Mini-Lab project is to design and produce a small-scale, autonomous, transportable clinical bacteriology laboratory which is affordable and above all suited to the MSF’s fields of intervention. This concept, developed by MSF with its partners, is also intended to be made available to health care operators in countries with limited resources. The Mini-Lab project hosted by MSF has been able to benefit from other funding mechanisms and the Foundation has been able to redirect its funding to other emerging initiatives.
