In Uganda, Shamim Nabuuma Kaliisa is using drones and artificial intelligence to screen women in remote villages for cervical and breast cancer.

Shamim Nabuuma Kaliisa is changing the lives of African women with pioneering technology to diagnose cervical cancer

The CHIL Femtech Center, part of the CHIL AI Lab Group, has released a new telemedicine technology that will help kids in schools across Africa get medical care.

Shamim Nabuuma Kaliisa is a cancer survivor and founder of Chil AI. Her firm uses artificial intelligence-guided e-oncology services and drones to transport cervical cancer specimens from remote rural villages to laboratories.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among African women, with a five-year survival rate of only 40%. As a survivor herself, Nabuuma Kaliisa founded Chil AI to fight back with artificial intelligence-guided e-oncology services and drone-powered transportation of cervical cancer specimens from remote rural villages to laboratories. Chil’s chatbot has also helped serve communities in Uganda, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo during the pandemic.
