    The Use-Case: Life AI - Tuan Cao (Episode #54

    In this episode, I sit down with Tuan Cao, co-founder of Life AI. Tuan and his team started by building a web 2 alternative to 23 and Me, focused on the Asian genome.

Long before decI was even a term, Life AI has been building a decentralized foundation for genetics-based medicine and research.

The future of genetic-based personalized treatments might have crypto underneath the hood. Let's get into it.
