Dr. Longmire’s presentation will be on January 10, 2018 at 1:30 PM (PST).  The presentation will be held at the Hilton San Francisco Union Square, Cyril Magnin III, 4th Floor, in San Francisco.

Dr. Longmire will talk about Medable's industry leading direct-to-patient platform, and reveal how Medable’s platform enables health data to be intelligently aggregated across the first fully digital representation of human health, the human “digitome,” from which reproducible digital signatures of health and disease can be derived for digital biomarkers and digital therapeutics. Recently, Duke University and the University of Pennsylvania announced that they adopted Medable's platform for direct-to-patient disease management apps and clinical studies.  Medable is the only platform that enables direct-to-patient with an enterprise platform useable by health experts without developers. 

Prior to Medable, Dr. Longmire trained in dermatology at Stanford University where she studied epigenetics.  While working in the Stanford lab, she studied how the human genome is expressed in dermatological diseases. She began to understand the shortcomings of clinical research and how the data captured from patients in a clinical setting lacks the real world context needed to tell us the whole story of a patient's health.  She co-founded Medable in 2014 to develop a purpose-built platform for healthcare that captures data directly from patients.  In 2017, privately-held Medable experienced 10X revenue growth, tripled its number of employees, introduced two new products and made partnership deals with Fortune 500 healthcare companies and top medical research hospitals, who collectively serve over 15 million patients and conduct 6,000 clinical trials. Based on current market demand, Dr. Longmire predicts that Direct-to-Patient healthcare will continue to see rapid market adoption.  

“There is tremendous need to decentralize healthcare and research to enable better, real world data capture and anytime, anywhere delivery of care,” said Longmire. “Our platform is defining Direct-to-Patient and making mobile data capture as easy to use by healthcare experts as a stethoscope. We are enabling a fundamental shift in how healthcare is delivered and disease is studied.”   

Biotech Showcase is an investor and networking conference devoted to providing private and public biotechnology and life sciences companies with an opportunity to present to, and meet with, investors and pharmaceutical executives in one place during the course of one of the industry's largest annual healthcare investor conferences, the J.P. Morgan Annual Healthcare Conference.
