The Healthy Gut with Dr. Megan Rossi

Among the dietary world in the modern day, several problems arise from poor eating habits. Poor health and disease are always on the rise and the nutrition world at large seems to only focus on fads, myths, and fearmongering research that is driven by conflicts of interest and big food and pharma influence. Finding the truth in how to eat healthily is difficult for the average American among so many half-truths and manipulated statistics. Thats why Dr. Megan Rossi, after the loss of her grandma from bowel cancer, felt compelled to take matters into her own hands with her PhD in Gut Microbiomes from the University of Queensland.

Innovating on the way people eat using small and easily stored granola packets, Dr. Rossi designed a gut-loving concoction of healthy nutrients in porridge, muesli, and even yogurt by founding Bio&Me in 2019. Bio&Me introduces millions of healthy gut bacteria and microbes into your microbiome whenever you eat their specially designed foods. The gut is much more than what most people think. In fact, it’s pretty much an entire ecosystem on its own. Just like any other ecosystem though, it can be unbalanced if key members of it are not present. Using live and active cultures in their food, Bio&Me runs damage control on unhealthy guts by introducing a stimulating shot of microbes that reinvigorate an unhealthy gut.

Building bundles of probiotic foods for customers around the world, Dr. Megan Rossi grew her business in Australia, spread to the UK, and now sells gut saving food to people all over the world who suffer from poor gut health. Bio&Me and Dr. Rossi have carved out a niche in the world of probiotics by making nutrients and cultures in foods available to everyone who would look to buy them.

 

Scaling Medical Technology with Dr. Aengus Tran

In the world of medicine, very often to hospitals and medical care facilities find themselves unable to treat and prevent diseases because of short-staffed operations. Radiologists can be swamped with work because of the sheer volume of scans they need to review as well as people they need to meet with. Aengus Tran saw this problem arise when he was visiting his home in Vietnam while studying for his degree at the University of New South Whales in Sydney, Australia. The problem of healthcare in the modern world isn’t recognizing and treating diseases, it’s finding a doctor who has enough time on their hands to do both.

Thats why after finishing his degree and postgrad, Dr Tren and his brother Dimitri began developing a way to expand medical diagnosis up to modern needs.

Using A.I. technology and knowledge of medical science, the two developed programs that scan and identify points of interest in chest and CT results. This allows radiologists and other physicians to essentially have a fully functional assistant that finds the most important scans on the most critical patients, placing their cases on the top of the physician’s bucket list so they can manage the crushing workload just a little faster and easier.

What they created, they called Hundson.ai, a machine that is capable identifying, inspecting, highlighting, and learning diseases. Dr. Tren went to school to become a cardiologist but has now found himself running a company as an entrepreneur with his brother and cofounder Dimitri. With eyes looking to the future, they look to expand on the ways their A.I. can assist medical professionals in their work in the most trustworthy and effective way possible. Their expandable and multimodal model is now helping people around the world, and they aim to even transform the way the healthcare system spots and diagnoses disease.

Developing new systems and partnering with healthcare companies and officials (such as Sonic Healthcare), Aengus and Dimitri Tren provide their service to over a million clinicians around the world. To check out their website, click here and read more about it for yourself.
