“What’s happening behind the scenes is a continually advancing set of AI tools combined with talented clinicians. What that means is not only do members get 30–45 minutes with their provider, but each of those minutes is more impactful," says Lifeforce co-founder and president Joel Jackson. In a recent interview, he shares why tech is the future of preventive healthcare, what his biomarkers tell him as a performance-driven dad, how Lifeforce is putting those life-changing tools in your hands right now, and more. Some of our favorite takeaways: 💪 The biggest opportunity to improve health is to take what we already know and make it easy for doctors to use this information with their patients. 📈 Having AI tools do continual analysis in the background allows doctors to focus on what they do best: work with patients to understand their health and identify the most important areas for improvement. 🪄 Making longevity tangible—with questions like, “what is the likelihood I’ll be at my daughter’s high school graduation?”—has changed his perspective. When you think about health this way, most of what you need to do is well within the current reach of science and doesn’t take any “magic.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/e9swpNdk  #digitalhealth #preventativehealthcare #longevity

Here's why we're interested in investing in a more decentralized electrical grid  ⬇  #ClimateTech Electricity is already the largest supplier of useful energy. At the same time as demand for it is rising, the current American grid is becoming more unstable due to climate change, weather issues, and poor maintenance. The grid will face further strain as the AI boom persists. Today, the way that electricity is produced, distributed, and consumed is changing. Non-fossil fuel energy sources are increasing, and we’re seeing a shift towards power generation from non-utility sources. As a result, we're increasingly moving away from electricity production at centralized power plants owned by large utility companies (e.g., ConEd, Exelon, PG&E) and towards a more mixed generation base of utility players and non-utility players (e.g., independent power producers, end consumers with at-home generation). This transition is already under way: Independent power producers generated nearly half of US electricity in 2022. This shift towards a more distributed grid largely supports the generation of renewable energy—but there are a host of challenges and opportunities to consider. We're focused on investing in early-stage software and tech-enabled companies contributing to this fundamental shift in our grid infrastructure.
