A science-first software company, nference has been called “The Google of Biomedicine” by the Washington Post. Our proprietary AI-enabled software is the only platform that addresses the end-to-end challenges associated with unlocking the potential of electronic medical records (EMRs) in aprivacy-preserving manner. The exponential growth of biomedical data, driven by the adoption of EMRs, provides an unprecedented opportunity to create transformative technologies and products in healthcare. nference partners with medical centers to turn decades of rich, but predominantly unstructured, data captured in EMRs into powerful solutions that enable scientists to discover and develop the next generation of personalized diagnostics and treatments for patients worldwide. We believe that the greatest opportunity for our generation to elevate human health is by developing technology to curate and synthesize the world's biomedical data in order to enable that scientific discovery.
