How is this useful to me, like in understanding my body and taking any actions?

Right.

So let me back up and just say that...

We've known for a long time that age is the number one risk factor for chronic disease.

What we've only learned recently is that we don't age synchronously.

Our organs age at very different rates.

And back to what I said, proteins being the building blocks of our cells, and protein is a molecule, so it's a building block of our cells and of our organs.

Right, exactly.

How do you see proteomics sitting with all these different biometric testing capabilities that we have now? And is it adjacent to you? Is it complementary to like, yeah, what's the how's it fit into the big picture here?

Yeah, I think it's complementary in many ways, but I think it's also extremely differentiated.

And let me start by just saying our assay doesn't diagnose anything.

It is not diagnostic.

And most of the tests you mentioned are diagnostic.

They are looking for something that is in a current state of dis-ease.

or discord in the body.

And so sticking to this brain health one, if I find out that my brain is aging significantly faster than my other organs, What are some of the interventions or maybe what's the experience that you guys have for the user, the consumer that's going through this? Am I going to be stacked up on some medications? Am I going to be supplementing? Are you going to tell me to go to the gym more, sleep better?

How exactly do I access this technology? Would I access it in the early stages through a traditional blood draw? Give us a sense for what this kind of this consumer slash patient kind of pathway looks like?

Yeah, ultimately, we will be a direct-to-consumer clinic, an at-home clinic.

But today, we're not available.

We will be, I hope, direct-to-consumer by the end of next year.

If the listeners go to verobioscience.com, they can join our waitlist.

We have several thousand people on the wait list right now that we're hoping to bring a subset through in the next quarter through in the way of IRB studies with our clinical partners.

And we have two clinical partners now, one we've announced, which is Biograph.

Let's do it.

Based on the science that you now understand, how have you changed your life significantly with your longevity in mind as you look ahead to the decades in the future?

Yeah, so I, for one, am not one of these people that want to live forever.

I don't understand it.

I'm much more interested in this idea of health span.

And I like this idea of living young, only as late as possible.

I think that's my goal.

And it's changed quite a bit in my life.

But is that something you kind of debate with yourself? Or should I try this as well and this and this and this? I'm
