Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) account for 80% of the disease burden and most premature deaths in the EU, significantly impacting quality of life, life expectancy, and healthcare costs. Environmental stressors such as air pollution, urban noise, food pollutants, radiation, and emerging factors like electromagnetic fields and light exposure are increasingly recognized as key contributors to these health risks. In 2022 alone, air pollution was linked to 311,000 excess deaths in the EU-27, underscoring the urgent need for action.
The ENACT Project aims to revolutionize NCD prevention and management by developing an AI-driven exposomic risk score and analysis framework. This platform will help patients, healthcare professionals, and policymakers predict, monitor, and prevent chronic vascular and non-vascular diseases, enhancing both clinical decision-making and policy implementation.
The ENACT project, spanning 42 months from January 1, 2025, to June 30, 2028, is comprised of 21 partners from 10 countries with a total budget of €7,997,612.77.
I-Sense Group of ICCS plays a key role as Technical and Integration Manager, contributing to AI model development, advanced analytics, and leading integration activities and energy-efficient sensor networking. ENACT is paving the way for smarter, data-driven healthcare solutions to reduce the human and financial burden of NCDs.
