Seventh Sense Biosystems, developers of a painless push-button blood collection device, has announced its new corporate name, YourBio Health, which aims to reflect the company’s focus on putting health information in the hands of the individual.
YourBio Health enables individuals to collect a blood sample and receive the results via secure website from home. This method aims to allow greater access to and control of one’s personal health data.
The company has also recently closed on $21 million in funding from founder Flagship Pioneering, along with Newpath Partners. This investment will accelerate future growth and support forthcoming product launches.
Harry Wilcox, executive chairman of YourBio Health, said: “The rebranding from Seventh Sense to YourBio Health comes at a defining moment in our company’s history and better reflects who we are today. Our plan is to give people access to their biological information in a way that gives them more control over their health decisions. With the movement toward telehealth and personalised medicine, we are well positioned to play our part in shaping the future of healthcare by providing solutions that people want.”
