Our take

Datasets are continuing to increase in size, and whilst this additional complexity of data is beneficial to clinical research, it's becoming difficult to organize and analyze. This is a particularly important hurdle for precision medicine, an area of study that will greatly benefit from granular and detailed datasets.

Tempus has built a platform that collects, structures, and analyzes complex and organized clinical data from electronic medical records. By making granular and large-scale datasets more accessible for analysis, the company aims to help doctors create bespoke treatments for individual patients. The platform also facilitates the generation of genomic data through DNA sequencing of patients.

Tempus’s approach to autonomous data analysis will be hugely beneficial to precision medicine as it is specifically aimed towards processing large-scale electronic medical records. With an efficient way to analyze vast medical databases, doctors could begin to gain more personalized and flexible insights into their patients, as opposed to focusing on a one-size-fits-all solution. This is just the beginning, with continued investment, the company is currently using funds to scale operations and to build out new capabilities for its platform.
