Longitudinal Study on Early Detection and Precision Health
Register Now
Major diseases like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory illnesses often go undetected without symptoms, and infrequent check-ups may miss them early.
Nobel laureate Prof. Ferenc Krausz and his team have used ultra-fast lasers to detect infrared molecular fingerprints in blood.
We seek to confirm if this technology can spot diseases early through regular blood tests and health monitoring.

The 10-year study includes 23 study visits, followed by 10 years of long-term health data collection. Here is what to expect:
Physical exam, ECG, vitals, and body measurements
Standard clinical parameters analysis and urinalysis, blood for comprehensive molecular phenotyping
CAC and low-dose chest CT
All study-related tests and medical procedures will be provided free of charge.
Participants will receive results of the standard clinical parameters analysis and urinalysis.
