OCProDx focused on commercializing a multiplexed protein diagnostic blood test; HIPPOCRATES and SOPHIA apply predictive models to treatment response.
ATTUROS LIMITED
Irish diagnostics SME developing predictive blood tests and treatment-response algorithms for chronic inflammatory and metabolic diseases.
Their core work
Atturos is an Irish SME specializing in predictive diagnostics and precision medicine, particularly protein-based blood tests that help clinicians predict treatment response and disease progression. Their core capability lies in developing predictive algorithms and biomarker-based diagnostic tools for chronic inflammatory and metabolic diseases. They contribute data analytics and predictive modeling expertise to large European health consortia focused on psoriasis, obesity, and endocrine-related conditions.
What they specialise in
HIPPOCRATES (EUR 675K, their largest project) builds predictive models for treatment response and early diagnosis in psoriatic diseases.
SOPHIA develops when-to-treat and how-to-treat algorithms using federated databases and shared value analysis for obesity.
SCREENED uses 3D cell culture, organoids, and organ-on-chip technology to screen endocrine-disrupting chemicals affecting thyroid function.
How they've shifted over time
Atturos began with a focus on in-vitro biological models and endocrine disruptor screening (SCREENED, 2019), involving advanced lab technologies like 3D cell culture, bioprinting, and organ-on-chip. Their more recent projects (SOPHIA 2020, HIPPOCRATES 2021) show a decisive shift toward clinical predictive analytics — treatment algorithms, patient stratification, and federated health databases. The trajectory moves clearly from laboratory screening toward patient-facing precision medicine tools.
Atturos is moving toward data-driven precision medicine, building predictive tools that match patients to optimal treatments — a growing need across chronic disease management.
How they like to work
Atturos primarily operates as a specialist partner in large research consortia rather than leading them. Their single coordination role was a small SME Phase 1 feasibility study (EUR 50K), while their participant roles involve substantial multi-partner projects. With 68 unique partners across 14 countries, they integrate well into large European consortia and bring focused analytical capabilities to broader clinical research efforts.
Atturos has built an extensive network of 68 unique partners across 14 countries through just 4 projects, reflecting their participation in large health consortia. Their reach spans broadly across Europe with no narrow geographic clustering.
What sets them apart
Atturos occupies a specific niche as a diagnostics SME that bridges biomarker discovery and clinical decision-making. Unlike academic partners who focus on disease mechanisms, Atturos brings a commercialization lens — their founding project was explicitly about strategic planning for market entry of a diagnostic blood test. For consortium builders, they offer a rare combination: an SME with real diagnostic product ambitions that can also contribute predictive analytics to clinical research programs.
Highlights from their portfolio
- HIPPOCRATESTheir largest funded project (EUR 675K) targeting predictive models for psoriatic arthritis treatment — a major unmet clinical need with direct diagnostic product potential.
- SCREENEDA technically diverse project combining organoids, bioprinting, and organ-on-chip for thyroid disruptor screening — shows Atturos can operate across advanced biological model technologies.
- OCProDxTheir only coordinated project and origin story — a Phase 1 feasibility study for commercializing a multiplexed protein diagnostic blood test.
