Bringing precision medicine to psychiatry

Psychiatry remains one of the most biologically complex fields in medicine. Unlike most areas of medicine, psychiatric and clinical neuroscience diagnosis today still relies almost entirely on subjective interviews and behavioral observation rather than measurable biology, making objective diagnosis and effective treatment selection extraordinarily difficult. This complexity carries a steep human and financial cost: patients often cycle through multiple misdiagnoses and ineffective treatments before finding one that works, driving up the burden on healthcare systems, families, and economies worldwide.

OneCare combines blood-based biomarkers with machine learning to give clinicians objective, reproducible signals of psychiatric illness, starting with schizophrenia, with a platform designed to extend to depression, bipolar disorder, and other neuropsychiatric conditions. Our goal is to make this kind of precision diagnostics available at the convenience and speed of a routine blood test, so every patient, regardless of geography or income, can access biologically grounded mental health care.

Additional Application

Supporting Drug Development

The same biological signatures that guide clinical decision-making can also improve drug development.

Psychiatric clinical trials often fail because patients with the same diagnosis can have very different underlying biology, making it difficult to identify who is most likely to respond to an investigational therapy.

Our platform enables pharmaceutical partners to stratify patients based on objective molecular profiles, helping enrich clinical trials with the right patient populations, improve signal detection, and increase the likelihood of successful clinical outcomes.

Following regulatory approval, our platform can be deployed as companion diagnostics, helping clinicians identify the patients most likely to benefit from a specific therapy through a simple blood test.
