The Health-i Awards are sponsored by the Techniker Krankenkasse, Germany’s largest German public health insurance provider, and Handelsblatt, one of the leading business newspapers in Germany. The Health-i Award winners were selected by industry and research experts for initiatives that are transforming the next era of healthcare through innovation.

 

CENTOGENE was awarded the prize based on its proprietary, AI-powered biomarker platform, CentoMetabolome. The internally deployed platform has the potential to revolutionize the detection of new biomarkers – accelerating research that previously took months to perform into just a few days. The use cases for the CentoMetabolome platform include supporting full metabolome screening, identifying biomarker candidates, and establishing a better understanding of drug efficacy.

 

“We are proud to be recognized for our impact in the healthcare industry and the innovation we are bringing with our unique leading metabolomics platform,” said Carsten Ullrich, Ph.D., Senior Director of Artificial Intelligence. “Working together across several departments, we have been able to fully leverage CENTOGENE’s expertise in omics, extensive global insights from our rare disease-centric Bio/Databank, and advanced AI tools. As a result, we can now analyze the dynamics of diseases to drive biomarker discovery and test drug candidates as we continue our mission to enable the cure of 100 rare diseases in 10 years.”

 

The continued development of AI initiatives, like CentoMetabolome, represent another significant step forward for CENTOGENE’s mission to enable the cure of 100 rare diseases within the next 10 years. To learn more, visit: https://www.centogene.com/virtual-investor-event
