Digital Twins allow us to create a virtual copy of real-life objects and connect them in real-time. This technology has endless applications, including predicting the progression of diseases in patients, assessing the effectiveness of climate-related policies in smart cities, and devising cutting-edge solutions for water-energy conservation.
For instance, the DIGIPREDICT consortium, under the leadership of EPFL, is currently developing a digital twin that doctors can use to forecast COVID-19 progression in patients.
