ArcanaBio is modeling a digital twin of your health, from proteins. A molecular portrait that updates every day from a drop of saliva, powered by our patented technology. A continuous conversation with your own biology for a long and healthy life. Healthcare is reactive. You feel symptoms, you get tested, you get treated. Scientific wellness promises a different future, one that is predictive, preventive, and personalized. But today that future still requires blood draws, clinical infrastructure, and expensive panels. It remains inaccessible to the vast majority of people. ArcanaBio removes those barriers. Our patented platform detects protein biomarkers directly from saliva, without reagents, labels, or lab processing. Combined with AI-powered analysis, we transform raw biological signals into continuous, actionable health insights. Based at the BioInnovation Institute in Copenhagen, with operations in Iceland, Denmark, and Austria, ArcanaBio is backed by the Novo Nordisk Foundation and supported by EU grant partnerships across Europe. We hold a granted US patent and are advancing toward our first commercial offering in 2026. Our roadmap moves from lab services to a home device to a wearable, progressively putting molecular health monitoring into the hands of every person, every day.

About me

Healthcare today waits for you to get sick. Leroy Hood called for a shift to predictive, preventive, personalized medicine, and he was right. But scientific wellness still depends on blood draws, clinics, and expensive panels. It remains a privilege.

I founded ArcanaBio to change that. We're building the infrastructure to make molecular health monitoring as routine and accessible as brushing your teeth. A digital twin of your health, built from proteins in saliva, updated daily. No needle, no lab, no waiting.

The missing piece is AI. Not as a feature, but as the layer that turns raw biological signals into something every person can understand and act on. Without it, you have data. With it, you have a continuous conversation with your own biology.

My mission is to finish what scientific wellness started: make it universal, make it daily, and put it in the hands of every person, not just the few who can afford it.
