H-optimus-0: A Foundation Model for Computational Pathology
H-optimus-0 is Bioptimus's inaugural open-source pathology foundation model — a 1.1B-parameter ViT-g/14 trained with self-supervised learning on over 500,000 whole-slide images from 4,000+ clinical centers worldwide. The model achieves state-of-the-art performance across tile- and slide-level benchmarks including cancer subtyping, biomarker prediction, and gene expression estimation. As the foundational release of Bioptimus's model family, H-optimus-0 has exceeded one million downloads and is widely adopted by pharmaceutical and academic researchers.

Pathology Foundation Models: Evolution, Current Landscape, Challenges and Opportunities from a Technical and Clinical Perspective
This peer-reviewed review surveys the technical and clinical evolution of pathology foundation models, from early task-specific systems to large Vision Transformer architectures trained on millions of slides. H-optimus-0 and H-optimus-1 are cited as leading examples of domain-specific pathology foundation models representing best-in-class scale and performance. The work places Bioptimus at the forefront of a rapidly maturing field with clear clinical translational potential.

HEST-1k: A Dataset for Spatial Transcriptomics and Histology Image Analysis
HEST-1k assembles 1,229 spatial transcriptomic profiles each paired with a whole-slide image and metadata across 26 organs and 25 cancer types, providing a large benchmark for foundation model evaluation in spatial biology. H-optimus-0 achieves top performance on the HEST-Benchmark for predicting spatial gene expression directly from H&E images, ranking first among all evaluated foundation models. The work establishes HEST as the primary benchmark for evaluating pathology models on spatial transcriptomics — a domain central to Bioptimus's M-Optimus and STELA platforms.
