Venturelab's series about Switzerland’s most inspiring entrepreneurs and founders continues with Danuta Cichocka, the co-founder and CEO of Resistell AG.

The EPFL spin-off offers a diagnostic device, the rapid AST method, which is based on the detection of movement caused by living bacterial cells.
