Health Executives on Digital Transformation in Healthcare
Hear executives from Quantum Health, Surescripts, EY, Clinical Architecture and Personify Health share their views on digital transformation in healthcare.
According to the company website, the “centerpiece” of its expansion is the “XC-marrow ECM™, a patented “extracellular matrix” laid down by human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)–a 3D microenvironment that allows stem cells to replicate more rapidly and with greater preservation of stem cell phenotypes (“stemness”) than traditional tissue culture plastic. It allows SBS to grow stem cells from sources such as adipose tissue, bone marrow and umbilical cord blood, opening up potential for research, pharmaceutical and novel clinical uses.”
Officers include Davis, Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Xiao-Dong Chen, Edward “Sy” Griffey and CEO Peter Savas.
