HIBT Lab! Biobot Analytics: Mariana Matus and Newsha Ghaeli

How I Built This with Guy Raz

This podcast episode dives into Biobot Analytics and the founders' journey to pioneer wastewater analysis as a method to study population health. The focus lies on the capabilities and limitations of wastewater-based epidemiology. Sewage collected at certain times can serve as a source of information about a community's health, including detecting diseases, viral outbreaks, medication usage, and opioid consumption trends. Biobot, the company founded by the pioneers, aims to extract valuable data for improving public health and safety infrastructure by monitoring infectious disease outbreaks. Their data also offers insights into silent outbreaks, substance abuse, and future epidemics prediction.
