Exponential Medicine: Exploring the Future of Health, Technology & Medicine
Exponential Medicine is helping catalyze a better future for health, wellness, as well as diagnostics, and medical therapy by bringing together thought leaders, innovators and fast moving convergent technologies, ranging from Artificial Intelligence, Mobile Health, Regenerative Medicine, to ‘Omics’ and 3D printing.

While the primary Exponential Medicine program held at NASA Research Park (Feb 4–9th) is sold out and limited to less than 100 participants and dozens of world-class faculty, Exponential Medicine is throwing a larger event at the Computer History Museum to bring together the San Francisco Bay Area’s rich community of clinicians, inventors, innovators, investors, healthcare executives and entrepreneurs from across the healthcare ecosystem.

Live Exoskeleton Demo by EksoBionicsThe Saturday afternoon component will consist of:

  • Hands on Demo’s of new and emerging technologies (ranging from EksoBionics wearable robotics enabling the paralyzed to walk, to hands on with Intuitive Surgical’s DaVinci robotic surgery system).
  • Exposure to new startups across biomedicine & healthcare incubators such as Rock Health
  • Interactive workshops led by Exponential Medicine faculty , including sessions on the future of Oncology, Pain Management, Robotics & Artificial Intelligence, and a Participant Driven session
  • BioMedTech investors pitch sessions for startups to leading healthcare investors
