“I went to medical school wanting to make a difference,” says Anterior (formerly Co:Helm) co-founder and CEO Abdel Mahmoud, MD. “But I quickly realized that how good you are as a clinician is less about your individual skill set and more about the ecosystem and tools you have, and the environments you’re in.” 

Powered by LLMs, Anterior was built to manage all the work that comes before clinical decision-making, as well as take on the administrative overhead plaguing the healthcare industry. In the U.S. alone, these costs represent billions of dollars a year — not to mention the time taken away from potentially lifesaving research. 

Hear more about how Anterior is reshaping healthcare with AI in our latest Founder Forward interview featuring Abdel Mahmoud and NEA Co-CEO Mohamad Makhzoumi:

Amber Therapeutics has developed a solution that scientists previously thought was impossible — a revolutionary implantable system that treats urinary incontinence by targeting the pudendal nerve. 

For founder Aidan Crawley, this journey into groundbreaking science came after a successful career in finance and software. His true passion: taking on a major unmet healthcare need that could improve millions of lives. 

“I got exhausted trying to come up with the next trillion-dollar app in crowded markets, wondering if we were inventing problems to solve,” Aidan says. “I wanted to work on a problem that is indisputably real, where the difficulty is in the execution. If you’ve got a cure for a disease that impacts millions of people and you have 55 hurdles to get over, that’s a fun challenge.”

Read our full Q&A with Aidan to learn more about his journey founding Amber Therapeutics and why he’s forecasting a bright future for health tech.

⚕️ When it comes to using #AI in the medical world, technology providers should focus on applications that help doctors and other clinicians do their jobs, rather than replacing them outright.

Radiology Partners uses machine learning to examine roughly 50 million medical scans each year from more than 3,000 hospitals and imaging centers. The software quickly surfaces the scans that suggest cancer so the radiologist can save time and prioritize important cases. 

Read our full piece that explores how AI is reshaping the future of medicine and enhancing patient care.
