BioTwin research programmes, overview
Beyond the UAE pilot, BioTwin runs research across oncology, neurology, cardiology and metabolic health. Here is what is currently in progress.
What counts as research at BioTwin
A research programme is an active scientific project using anonymized participant biomarker data to refine detection models for a specific disease or condition. Research programmes are not commercial services. Results are not yet delivered to participants. When a programme is ready and approved in a given jurisdiction, it graduates into a clinical pilot, like the UAE cancer pilot today. Until that step, it stays inside BioTwin's research team and its scientific partners.
What is currently in research
BioTwin runs research programmes across four broad domains. Each programme feeds the same virtual twin, which is why a single finger-prick can contribute to many of them at once.
- Oncology. Lung, pancreas, prostate, ovarian. In addition, breast and colorectal are active in the UAE pilot with Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.
- Neurology. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, depression, epilepsy.
- Cardiology. Heart failure, hypertension.
- Metabolic and other. Diabetes, allergies, women's health.
How your kit contributes
Every BioTwin sample, anonymized and with consent, can feed multiple research programmes at once. Your biomarker signature is stored and reanalyzed retroactively as new research questions come in. You do not need to ship a new kit to contribute to a newly launched research project. The same single finger-prick you provided when you first ordered keeps working for the mission as the science advances.
