Mayo Clinic Platform_Accelerate has announced a new cohort of 18 national and international healthcare technology companies developing cutting-edge digital solutions to advance health innovation. Through the 30-week immersive program, companies gain access to expert mentors, industry-leading technologies, and millions of de-identified, longitudinal clinical records to develop and validate artificial intelligence-driven healthcare solutions.
According to John Halamka, M.D., Dwight and Dian Diercks President of Mayo Clinic Platform, the program brings entrepreneurs together with Mayo Clinic clinicians and other leading experts to turn ideas into practical solutions. The cohort addresses complex healthcare challenges including patient access automation, elderly patient monitoring, personalized back pain care, genomic cancer diagnosis, surgical risk reduction, male fertility assessment, and rare disease identification.
Featured companies in the cohort include 100ms, which automates patient access workflows for specialty practices; MyBackHub, an AI-powered platform for personalized back pain care; Xcoo, which provides AI-powered genomic cancer diagnosis; Hoopcare, which reduces surgical risk through AI-based preoperative evaluation; and Ecotone AI, which applies genome analysis to uncover disease-driving genetic mechanisms for rare diseases. Additional companies focus on cardio-renal-metabolic care optimization, obesity management, postoperative deterioration detection, and orthopedic surgery navigation.
Jamie Sundsbak, director of the Accelerate program, stated that the innovation in this cohort reflects the accelerating pace of AI in medicine. The program offers both a 30-week immersive experience and multiyear engagement pathways for participating companies, supporting them as they transition from concepts to scalable solutions for healthcare delivery.
