Software and lab services that help cosmetics, diagnostics, and drug companies find and validate useful biomarkers from wearable data and living tissue tests.
AI‑enabled wetlab discovery and wearable biomarker analytics
Recent stories show a clear opening: Google released an AI tool to prioritize wearable sensor biomarkers, Michael Polansky is training AI on live skin, and Oura faces a lawsuit over sleep‑tracking accuracy. With clinical failure rates still high, companies that tie AI to real wet‑lab validation can cut development risk and improve trial design.
