Verily

🎬 Introducing Verily’s “N of 1” docuseries, stories of our customers and partners harnessing diverse forms of health data and turning them into insights that transform lives. In the premiere episode, we’re transported to Las Vegas, the entertainment capital of the world, home to 2.5 million people and a tourist attraction for hundreds of thousands on any given day. Verily works with wastewater epidemiologists and treatment facilities, Southern Nevada Health District and Clark County Water Reclamation District, for near real-time detection of pathogens in the wastewater, helping to keep the community informed.

The Clark County Water Reclamation District in Las Vegas performs regular wastewater testing to understand the community health and prevent disease outbreaks. In collaboration with Verily, they put this into action during HLTH USA when 12,000 people attended the conference on the Strip. Wastewater samples from one week before to one week after HLTH were evaluated for pathogen concentrations. "The methods that we use include droplet digital PCR in order to identify the concentration levels and whether a pathogen is detected," said Amy Lockwood, Verily public health partnerships lead.

ICYMI live, hear Verily’s Chief People Officer Kerrie Peraino talk to Jaime Klein (she, her) of Inspire Human Resources about her insights on human-centric leadership, the opportunities for AI in HR, and how companies like Verily are developing their leaders. https://lnkd.in/dYeuGJc2

Last week at HLTH USA and in the surrounding Las Vegas area, Verily, the Southern Nevada Health District and Clark County Water Reclamation District, monitored certain infectious disease pathogens in the community wastewater. The insights will help inform the public health response to infectious disease in a city that sees so many new visitors during a major event. Wastewater epidemiology is transforming how we detect and respond to the spread of viruses. Get the basics – how it was born, what wastewater is, and the work Verily scientists are doing to successfully track a variety of infectious diseases. https://bit.ly/4frMVtC #wastewater #PublicHealth #HLTHUSA #HealthInnovation

DYK? ✅ Diabetes health literacy is how well people can find, understand and apply information and instructions to manage their diabetes. ✅ Low health literacy is common in people with diabetes, which impacts health outcomes, quality of life, healthcare utilization and costs. ✅ Diabetes is a complex condition. Health literacy is also complex — high levels depend on factors beyond a person’s ability to read. Verily has long been committed to health literacy for all individuals with diabetes and other chronic conditions. We offer resources, tools, services and support — anchored in health literacy best practices — that inspire better condition knowledge, self-care, medication adherence, healthcare engagement and more.

As part of several policy updates finalized in August 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services endorsed the concept of “fit-for-purpose” (FFP) studies and announced plans to issue a FFP study guidance document. To help inform this forthcoming guidance and contribute to ongoing dialogue around the role of FFP studies in the context of coverage with evidence development for emerging medical technologies, experts, including Verily’s Caroline Marra, provide a framework for FFP study design and data source selection. The work is published in two parts in Health Affairs Forefront: https://bit.ly/4fnBD9u and https://bit.ly/3UsEdDg #ClinicalStudies #ClinicalEvidence #HealthData

We had an incredible week at HLTH USA boldly showcasing our solutions and how we’re turning health data into precision health action. Some highlights: 💫 In partnership with wastewater epidemiologists and treatment facilities, we monitored the wastewater at HLTH and the surrounding Las Vegas area for 8 different pathogens. Sign up to receive the post-event report: https://veri.ly/4f6HHmK 💫 Verily leaders spoke about advancing health equity. Understanding a patient’s context - their race, conditions, and socioeconomic background - allows us to treat them as an individual. We shared a new AI-based reinforcement learning approach that can be applied to drive more equitable health outcomes. 💫 We previewed Verily Lightpath,* a chronic care platform that will turn health data into personalized, proactive care to help people with diabetes, obesity and other metabolic conditions live healthier lives. Thank you to everyone who met our team at the event. We’ll see you next year! #HLTHUSA #PrecisionHealth #HealthEquity #HealthData *To be available in 2026

I'm looking forward to speaking at the Digital Implementation Summit on November 13 about our work on developing digital measures for Parkinson's disease and the lessons we've learned along the way. I hope you can join us for a day of learning, developing, and networking with experts in the use of digital measures in clinical research - register here: https://lnkd.in/gDseQTJ7

It was great to spend a few days in Vegas with the Verily team at HLTH USA. Here are a few of my takeaways from the event: There was a lot of excitement on the floor (and in the bathrooms!) around our wastewater monitoring activation at the event. Check out the latest data on community-level rates of 8 different pathogens during HLTH: https://lnkd.in/gn3ZnVy2 I enjoyed seeing how innovators are using AI, specifically generative AI, to activate data, improve patient care, and address physician burnout. Looking ahead, 2025 is already shaping up to be quite an exciting year for Verily and the broader industry. What was top of mind for you at the event?

While at HLTH USA our Chief Marketing Officer Alix Hart shared an overview of what we’ve been up to at Verily – turning health data into precision health actions. #HLTHUSA #PrecisionHealth #HealthData
