How AI Transforms Your Body’s Biodata Into Real Health Solutions

… you’re going to learn about the engineering it takes to build a health data app. You’ll find out how data science, mathematics and predictive analysis look at how biomarkers impact overall wellness. At Base, your own data, along with deep expertise from an advisory board of functional medicine doctors, inform the algorithms. This means you get a distinctly personalized prescription on how to manage your health concerns.

Guest Lola Priego, founder and CEO of Base, is an experienced software engineer and former medical student on a mission to help people better understand what is going on in their bodies. She possesses a unique combination of skills to do just that.

She studied medicine before transferring to engineering at the Technical University of Madrid and earned a master’s degree in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the Illinois Institute of Technology.

While struggling with her own health problems, she identified major pain points in the healthcare system like lack of access to personalized health data. She created Base to solve this issue with a data-driven approach that also provides actionable diet and lifestyle recommendations. Base gets to the root cause of health concerns through analyzing biodata like hormones, nutrition, and vitamin deficiencies to get to the core of why you feel “off.”

“That’s how Base works,” Lola says. “We’re combining the data from doctors, from health coaches, from the actual data from our members retesting after incorporating a new diet, or a new lifestyle recommendation. We’re blending all of that to continue to improve our systems to be able to better help you to improve.”
