Mikael Kågebäck will present Sleep Cycle’s work on Cough Radar in his talk "AI-driven live cough rate tracking for public health surveillance" as part of the session “Investigation of Intriguing Outbreaks” on April 13 at the conference in Vienna. 

AI-Driven Insights for Early Detection of Respiratory Diseases
Cough Radar enables real-time monitoring of cough frequency trends, providing unique insights into the spread of respiratory infections at both a global and at a community level.

"Our technology introduces a new dimension to public health monitoring. By analyzing cough frequency on a global scale, we can potentially detect disease outbreaks on the very day they begin to spread," says Mikael Kågebäck, CTO at Sleep Cycle.

The ESCMID conference brings together experts in medicine, bioinformatics, data science, the pharmaceutical industry, academia, and government agencies—all working to understand, contain, and prevent the spread of infectious diseases.

About Cough Radar
Cough Radar is a premium feature in the Sleep Cycle app, available in App Store and Google Play. It alerts users to elevated cough levels—both locally and globally—and tracks the their own cough patterns, often detecting increases before they become noticeable. This helps users identify early signs of illness and stay informed about rising community cough levels and potential outbreaks.
