About Sophia Shanko | CEO & Founder, ShanX Medtech
As technology changes our world, I am enthusiastic about my contribution to an innovative healthcare. In particular, I am interested in the decentralization of diagnostic tests to the point of care. In this way, fast, evidence-based and personalized healthcare can be assured. To achieve this, I founded ShanX Medtech BV, a startup developing antibiotic efficiency testing devices to enable evidence-based antibiotic care that makes sense. BSc in Control Systems/Electrical Engineering, MSc in Semiconductors, PhD in diagnostic devices (Mechanical Engineering). NAF New York Best Impact Entrepreneur ’22, InspiringFifty Deep Tech Benelux+ ’21, Hello Tomorrow Deep Tech Pioneer ’21.
About ShanX Medtech
ShanX Medtech is a startup located in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Our team is broad and covers not only deep scientific knowledge but also seasoned entrepreneurs.
Since Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in 1928, the use of antibiotics has saved countless lives worldwide. However, the excessive and incorrect use of these same antibiotics has led to a worldwide health hazard.
It is precisely through the use of antibiotics that more and more resistant bacteria occur, which are therefore insensitive (or resistant) to certain antibiotics. Fighting infections caused by these resistant bacteria is therefore much more difficult because the usual antibiotics no longer work.
To counter this growing problem, it is of the utmost importance that antibiotics are handled correctly both worldwide and in the Netherlands. By this we mean not only the correct use of antibiotics by the patient, but also the correct prescription of antibiotics by the doctor.
