elea Highlights

elea Lab is live in Miami, FL

We're proud to announce our first laboratory partner in Florida: GastroMed Miami.

GastroMed brings together 15 board-certified gastroenterologists across 7 practice locations and 4 endoscopy centers in Miami-Dade, and as of this month, elea's AI-native pathology operating system is live across all of them.

What's running today: accession and specimen tracking, voice-driven AI drafting, pathologist sign-out and release, and a real-time KPI dashboard. The result is 100% structured, codeable reports with zero manual transcription.

This is elea's first footprint in Florida, and a meaningful step in our U.S. expansion. We didn't set out to optimize legacy systems. We set out to replace them.

Signals from the field

elea at DGP 2026 in Augsburg

The 109th Annual Meeting of the German Society of Pathology brought together over 350 presentations and hundreds of pathologists under one theme: crossing disciplinary lines to create new knowledge.

We were there. In Augsburg, May 28–30, we showed the pathology community what an AI-native lab operating system looks like in practice, a system already live in labs across Europe and the U.S.

The conversations at DGP reinforced what we keep hearing: digital pathology, AI-powered diagnostics, and next-generation LIS are no longer future visions. They're shaping how labs work today. And the teams moving fastest are the ones that have stopped asking whether to adopt new tools, and started asking how to embed them properly.

We're grateful to everyone who stopped by, asked hard questions, and shared what's actually happening inside their labs.

In the Press

Our CMO Sebastian Casu on automation bias — featured in The Pathologist

What happens when AI gets it wrong, and the pathologist follows it anyway?

Our CMO Sebastian Casu explored exactly this question in a new article for The Pathologist this month. The phenomenon is called automation bias, and it doesn't require carelessness. It happens to experienced clinicians, under normal working conditions.

One striking data point from the research: in 7 out of 100 cases, pathologists who had the correct answer changed it after seeing a wrong AI recommendation.The article outlines five practical strategies for keeping independent clinical judgment intact, from meaningful explainability to workflow design that protects the pathologist's own assessment before any AI output is shown.

The goal was never for pathologists to catch up with the machine. It's for the machine to augment the pathologist. That principle guides everything we build at elea.

What's Coming Next?

Next month, we're launching The Pathology Academy by elea, a free webinar series where you can see our platform in action, ask direct questions, and get practical insights for your lab.

Two tracks:

🇩🇪 DE/EU: June 3, 2026 - held in German, led by Sven Ernst and Sebastian Casu, MD
🇺🇸 U.S.: July 2, 2026 - held in English, led by Richard Gruner and Sebastian Casu, MD

Both sessions are 45 minutes on Zoom, completely free, and designed for open exchange. Live product walkthroughs, direct Q&A, real workflows, real solutions.Because the best way to understand digital pathology is to see it working.

Celebrating Lab Week

We also want to take a moment this month to recognize Lab Week.

Behind every innovation in digital pathology, every AI algorithm, every automated workflow, is the human expertise that laboratory professionals bring to their work every day.

At elea, we build to strengthen that expertise, not replace it. Thank you for making it all possible.
