🗞️ Emma Watson’s HealthTech Investment, and Health Breakthroughs You Can’t Miss!

Hello HealthHackers,

Are you ready to dive into exciting breakthroughs from health-related startups and innovations that are on a mission to transform healthcare as we know it? Here’s what’s trending:

🪄 The healthtech startup Hertility just secured funding from Harry Potter actor Emma Watson. Hertility seeks to provide more personalized testing, egg freezing, and telemedicine, to women through their reproductive journeys. The company is based in the U.K., where the founder Helen says women are not getting the care they deserve.

🥛 Did you know that Breakfast foods can affect the weight, metabolism, and energy levels of males and females differently? However, females have a better metabolic response to higher-fat breakfasts. Differences in muscle, hormones, and nutrient needs may play a role. Personalized nutrition based on metabolism can aid in weight loss, energy, and health.

🧪 Cardiff-based healthtech startup Antiverse just raised €4.2 million to advance generative AI antibody design. Founded in 2017, Antiverse is designing antibodies for challenging health-threatening targets, and is on a mission to revolutionize antibody design using AI technology.

💡 Researchers have recently unveiled a novel approach to tackling obesity by targeting fat absorption in the small intestine. A nanoparticle system designed to deliver therapeutic molecules directly to the digestive tract has shown significant potential to prevent diet-induced obesity.

🌠 A world of color and texture could soon become more accessible to people who are blind or have low vision through new software that narrates what a camera records. The tool uses generative AI (GenAI) language models to interpret the camera images and produce text and audio descriptions in real time to help users become aware of their surroundings more quickly.

💙 Did you know that Prioritizing your heart health from childhood to midlife can help prevent dementia later in life? If you want a healthy brain later in life, you better take care of your heart today or, better yet, as early in your life as possible.

That's all for now. Have a nice week!
