Tuan Cao
Tuan Cao is the co-founder and CEO of Genetica and LIFE AI, biotech companies building AI-driven precision health for Asian populations. A Cornell-trained computer scientist who once redesigned Google's Ads reporting engine, he left a comfortable Silicon Valley career to decode genomes built for the nearly one billion people of East Asian descent that Western genetic tools serve poorly. His current venture, LIFE AI, is a Singapore-based foundational AI platform he calls the Intelligence Layer of Human Health, securing 15+ petabytes of genomic data on-chain and aiming to let people own and benefit from their own genetic data.
Helix
Helix is a San Mateo-based population genomics company that helps health systems, life sciences companies, and public health organizations weave genomic data into everyday patient care. Built around its proprietary Exome+ assay and the first FDA-authorized whole exome sequencing platform, Helix powers large-scale precision health programs at partners like Mayo Clinic and Renown Health, with a research network spanning hundreds of thousands of sequenced participants.
