Datacubed Health

Datacubed Health is a pioneering healthcare technology company with the power to unlock the mysteries of what it is to be human.

We tackle the problem of retention, compliance and engagement of patients and research participants and we do this with colorful apps, engaging games, illuminating surveys and keen wearable and in-home sensors. Improvements in retention and engagement allows physicians and researchers access to higher quality, lower cost, real-world data that is relevant and actionable.

Datacubed Health offers a revolutionary mHealth platform. We are a part of an emerging field, called digital phenotyping, aimed at assessing people’s well-being based on their interaction with digital devices. Researchers and tech companies seek to capture users’ dwell times, their activities, cognitive states, and many types of passive sensor data including meta data of social media use. Digital phenotyping will yield a rich tapestry of Real-World Evidence (RWE).

With Datacubed Health as a partner, organizations can select just what they need from a wealth of information to help create or test effective medications, precisely time interventions, help patients stay on track and develop new research strategies.

By tapping in to what makes humans human, we are changing how healthcare approaches big data to create a healthier world and help people best care for themselves.

Datacubed Health began at New York University as part of The Human Project, a quest to develop the world’s most extensive and incisive database of human behavior, environmental influences, and genetic expressions. Using the latest sensors and apps to assemble a complete record of how we spend our days, the project was designed to catalog the qualities and circumstances that make us who we are. The Human Project, a 20-year study of 10,000 New Yorkers of all ages, backgrounds and economic statuses, drew a boundary around a microcosm of the city. The Project was designed to use uniquely sensitive tools to gather hundreds of points of real-time data about how people sleep, eat and spend their time and their money. As a commercial offshoot of The Human Project, Datacubed Health starts from a human-centric point of view. Everything we do, from the questions we ask to our interface with our subjects, puts understanding people first.

Datacubed Health was founded to be a leader in this new field of deep phenotyping platforms which is leading the next evolution in human understanding at the vanguard of predictive analytics and precision medicine.

Our mission is Better Data based on Better Science, yielding Better Analysis and Better Policy. We're a talented bunch of people seeking to unlock our human code, showing the connectedness to the physical world, unveiling all of the factors that make humans...human, and unleash the intrinsic value in doing so.
