AHEAD Medicine, a UC Berkeley SkyDeck-backed company has launched a new AI-enabled cell immuno-profiling analysis platform. The platform unlocks the cell-level data critical to vaccine, therapeutic research & development, patient diagnosis, and the safety of next generation treatments like cell therapy, the company will be showcasing its technology at US bio 2022.
Your 37 trillion cells hold secrets to your health. Hospitals and labs use machines called flow cytometers to investigate your cells size, shape, age and protein expression. Currently, turning this cell-level data into actionable clinical insights is manual, requiring highly trained humans to visually interpret millions of data points at a time. As a result, it is an expensive, error prone bottleneck in advanced healthcare markets and simply unavailable in emerging markets.
