[U30] Healthcare is going to be digital

Original title: Healthcare is moving towards digitization

Due to the talented people on the list of the health care and natural sciences this year, we decided to take this list apart.

So there will be two lists this year, one for the list of entrepreneurs in the healthcare field and the other for the pure list of scientists.

Most of the 30 juniors under the age of 30 in the healthcare field are entrepreneurs, and a small number are economists, policy experts and researchers. Although they are bumpy all the way, they finally pull the medical system into the digital age.

Take 28-year-old Nat Turner as an example. While walking on the Wharton campus, he met Zach Weinberg, who co-founded several Internet start-ups. Their first start-up was a campus-based take-away service company (similar to the popular online ordering service Seamless among college students), and later set up an Internet advertising company, Invite Media. According to reports, they sold the company to Google for $81 million. But Turner told us: "I and Zach's mind are not on the advertisement."

Now he is working on collecting and storing all the important medical data lost in the handwritten medical records and bad electronic medical record systems. Their idea is to use machine learning to capture this information. Turner's medical big data company Flatiron provides paid system use to doctors, but in fact, selling the data to pharmaceutical companies and health insurance companies is the real income of the company.

David He, who graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, founded Quanttus with people who raised $22 million through venture capital firms such as Khosla Ventures and Matrix Partners. Dollar funds. David found that small movements that are not noticeable can be used to measure heart health – a possibility for developing a new generation of wearable devices. Katelyn Gleason, 29, is the CEO of the Eligible API, whose products automatically detect patient insured conditions, thus eliminating the hassle of having a doctor call. Investors such as Esther Dyson have invested $1.5 million in the company. Pillpack, a handheld pharmacy founded by TJ Parker, offers a novel approach to dispensing tablets to remind patients to take them on time. The pharmacy has raised $12.85 million from Accel Partners, Atlas Ventures and other investors.

In addition, there are three thinkers. MIT Assistant Professor Nikhil Agarwal used economic theory to try to understand how the medical deployment mechanism that determines the location of a doctor's training works. Maria Pereira, 29, has developed a new adhesive that could be used to repair the perforation of the heart. Perhaps the most inspirational is the 29-year-old David Fajgenbaum, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania who has developed a global research network for the treatment of multi-center Custer. Lehman's disease, a rare disease of the lymph nodes. When the chemotherapy failed, he almost died, and then he returned to the medical school. Currently, David is using his research to fight back the disease.
