1. Guardant Health
Guardant Health is a diagnostics company focused on cancer. They put their effort in changing the way to manage cancer. Current cancer treatment often requires biopsies, which are risky and costly and consequently cannot be used to capture genetic changes that typically lead to treatment failure. The company’s enables physicians to see these genetic changes in real time and treat them with the appropriate therapies. Guardant Health’s technology proprietary technology enables comprehensive real-time monitoring of cancer through a simple blood test.
2. Health Catalyst
Health Catalyst’s data warehousing and clinical analytics products help health systems use their information to improve the quality and efficiency of care and reduce costs. The company’s data warehousing architecture uses a just-in-time approach to data binding to resolve many problems that encountered in traditional solutions. The Health Catalyst data warehouse combines that architecture with a set of analytics applications. It generates new insights that multidisciplinary teams that can be used to make and maintain process changes.
3. Labcyte
Labcyte develops a life sciences about liquid handling. Liquid handling is a critical area in life science discovery, research and development. Labcyte’s systems use sound energy to transfer liquids with extreme precision. It also accuracy in billionth-of-a-litre increments, eliminating the significant issues of traditional methods using pipette tips. This makes it easier for the people to discover new therapeutics, improve diagnostics and target prescriptions of medicines for patient-specific treatments.
4. Organovo
Many diseases lack effective treatments, and over 70% of drugs fail late in clinical trials due to toxicity or efficacy. Organovo’s 3D bioprinting technology is changing medical research and practice by creating novel therapeutic tissues. Organovo provides better drug development models. Organovo’s 3D bioprinter provides a way to design and create functional human tissues. This invention is considered more effective drugs that more accurately reproduce native biology to create novel therapies and enable safer.
5. Vaxxas
Vaxxas’s vaccine delivery system enhances the performance of existing and next-generation vaccines. Vaxxas’s vaccine has a number of advantages over needle injections. It’s application to the skin is pain-free and has been shown in preclinical studies to result in a protective immunogenic response, using as little as one-hundredth of the dose required by conventional needle and syringe.
