The Future Of Medicine: Precision And Personalization with Dr. Daniel Kraft

The Future Of Medicine: Precision And Personalization | This
episode is brought to you by TrueDark, BiOptimizers, and HigherDOSE
It’s an exciting time to be in medicine, as we watch technological
advances completely change the way we understand the body. There
are revolutions happening on multiple levels: the “omics”
revolution that looks at the interactions of the genome,
microbiome, metabolome, transcriptome, and more; the digitization
of data that involves tracking our biology through things like the
Oura ring or a continuous glucose monitor; and the systems biology
medicine movement that is reframing the way we look at preventing
disease and healing the body at the root. I was excited to sit down
with Dr. Daniel Kraft to talk about a different vision that will
integrate this type of information into the future of
healthcare.  Dr. Kraft is a Stanford and Harvard-trained
physician-scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur. He is currently
serving as the Chair of the XPRIZE Pandemic Alliance Task Force.
With over 30 years of experience in clinical practice, biomedical
research, and healthcare innovation, Dr. Kraft has chaired the
Medicine for Singularity University, and is founder and chair of
Exponential Medicine, a program that explores convergent, rapidly
developing technologies and their potential in biomedicine and
healthcare. He has multiple scientific publications and patents
through NIH-funded faculty positions with Stanford University
School of Medicine, and as clinical faculty at UCSF. Dr. Kraft is
heavily involved in healthcare innovation, and recently founded
Digital.Health, and is an advisor to several leading startups and
healthcare organizations. This episode is brought to you by
