Navigating the tumultuous sea of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is no small feat, and Ariadna Maso of Sanno Health is our compass on this voyage. As the mastermind behind a company that's reshaping how we understand and manage gut health, Ari shares her intimate understanding of the patient's struggle, from the stinging uncertainty of diagnosis to the often overlooked psychological toll. Our conversation goes beyond the standard medication narrative and into the realm of holistic care, where anti-inflammatory diets and mental health support take center stage. Ari's insights into ongoing research illuminate a path for integrating these lifestyle modifications into patient care, offering a beacon of hope for those navigating these often-rough waters.

When it comes to personalizing patient care, digital biomarkers are the wayfinders charting a course through the previously uncharted territories of healthcare. But the journey is fraught with challenges: data diversity, operational hurdles, and the sheer volume of information from tools like wearables. In this episode, Ariadna navigates us through these operational storms, detailing how Sanno Health evolved from an app into a comprehensive platform that's not only tracking patient health but is actively engaging them in their treatment. We also probe into the stark disparities between industry perceptions of patient-centric care and the realities patients face, unveiling the transformative potential of incorporating patient feedback directly into clinical trial designs. Join us as we explore the diverse therapeutic landscapes that stand to benefit, including digestive health and the burgeoning realm of women's health, and the far-reaching implications of data-driven medical advancements.
