“Lung cancer and liver cancer are in the top three deadliest cancers in the world, simply because we catch it way too late,” said Ilay Marom, the co-founder and Chief Operating Officer at NaNose Medical.
Founded around five and a half years ago, NaNose Medical is working to change that reality. Launched “with the purpose of revolutionizing screening tests and early diagnosis,” Marom explained in conversation with CTech, the Israeli startup is pioneering non-invasive diagnostics based on breath biomarkers. It’s technology that holds particular significance for the early detection and future treatment of liver disease and lung cancer.
“Everybody knows early detection saves lives,” he continued. “Everybody knows about mammograms for breast cancer or colonoscopy for gastric cancer, but for several conditions like lung cancer and liver cancer, there’s no equivalent test.”
NaNose Medical inventor and Co-founder is Technion Professor Hossam Haick.

As more people turn to AI chatbots for companionship, life advice, or even as a stand-in for therapy, experts say the technology offers both new opportunities and risks when it comes to mental health. Prof. Tanzeem Choudhury is the chief of health innovation in the Joan & Irwin Jacobs Technion-Cornell Institute and has been studying AI and mental health for 15 years. She said AI tools are available any time, often at low cost, making it easier for people to access some form of mental health support.
