Cipherome (“Cipherome”), a Silicon Valley-based, genomic bioinformatics start-up, has joined the American Heart Association Center for Health Technology & Innovation’s (the Center) Innovators’ Network. The Center is focused on building and fostering health technology relationships to develop innovative and scalable solutions.
The Innovators’ Network is a consortium that connects entrepreneurs, providers, researchers, and payers. Innovators’ Network members also have access to the Association’s digital guidelines, recommendations, and best-in-class science as they develop digital healthcare technologies. Members collaborate with the Center in different ways, including the building of models for clinical outcome studies, lowering the significant cost of developing those studies independently, helping connect the science to technology, and providing evidence that a digital platform improves healthcare outcomes – a key concern for providers and payers.
“The Center aims to advance the rapid, efficient, and effective development of healthcare technology,” said Eric Peterson, M.D., M.P.H., Vice Provost and Senior Associate Dean for Clinical Research at the University of Texas Southwestern and volunteer chair of the American Heart Association’s Health Tech Advisory Group for the Center. “It’s incredibly encouraging to see Cipherome leveraging this consortium to broaden and deepen their engagement in this arena.”
“We believe that personalized medicine is a key component of addressing medical equity issues, and we are very excited to join the network with a goal of clinical adoption of personalized medicines for cardiovascular patients,” said Jane Chiang, M.D. Chief Medical Officer at Cipherome.
