Nutrition is key to managing — and preventing — diabetes. In fact, healthy eating habits are central to all cardiometabolic health, yet it’s very difficult to achieve meaningful, lasting change. Verily’s evidence-based framework empowers Lightpath members to build lasting, healthy eating habits. Supported by a comprehensive care team and AI-powered meal-logging, and rooted in behavioral science and clinical expertise, this approach makes nutritional change a positive, personalized, and proactive experience.

Today is World Diabetes Day! According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 80% of Americans with prediabetes and over 20% of those with diabetes are unaware they have the condition. Screening is key for early detection and action as even prediabetes can damage our bodies — such as our blood vessels, heart and kidneys — before it progresses to type 2 diabetes. This is also widely unknown. 💚 That’s where Verily Me helps — a free app that can educate and empower us all with personalized care recommendations, like diabetes screening and other preventive care, from licensed providers based on our health records. This National Diabetes Awareness Month, let’s unlock our personal health. Download Verily Me from the App Store or Google Play.
LinkedIn 👏 Big celebration coming up! Amy Lockwood, Verily Head of Public Health Partnerships, will represent Verily as an innovation honoree at the Fierce Healthcare Fierce 50 Awards Gala on November 20. We’re recognized for Verily Sightline, wastewater-based pathogen testing to combat infectious disease and provide real-time data to support public health preparedness and response. “We’re investing in the science, the relationships, and programs so that we're able to support public health, the biopharma industry and health sector in general, by providing these tools to try to protect human health.” - Amy Lockwood
At HLTH USA last month, our Associate Chief Clinical Officer Carolyn Bradner Jasik, MD and Arundhati Parmar of MedCity News discussed how Verily Me provides consumers with personalized recommendations from licensed clinicians based on review of their health data.
The CNS Summit session “Perspectives on AI” sparked a dynamic discussion among leaders, including our Chief Medical & Scientific Officer Andrew Trister, MD PhD, Paul Ashley of Johnson & Johnson, Kushal Gohil of Parexel, Steve Rosenberg of uMotif, and Michelle Longmire M.D. of Medable, Inc. They explored various approaches to leveraging the opportunities presented by AI. Dr. Trister noted: “The ability to use AI to co-discover and help us reason over the large types and volumes of data that no human could realistically do will ultimately help us identify how we can truly improve disease trajectory and deliver meaningful healthcare.”
Health data is all around us – from sensor data during a walk to pathogen data in a flush of water, CGM data from a sugar spike, and EHR data from a doctor's visit. What if we could connect all this real-world data to better predict and prevent negative outcomes, and make care more precise? Verily Pre is the AI-native platform designed to do just that. Powered by Verily Intelligence, Pre provides the building blocks of healthcare AI: ✨ Harmonizing health data: Standardizing diverse, multimodal data on a clinical standard. ✨ Developing and evaluating AI models: Securely building and validating AI models. ✨ Deploying safely: Integrating AI solutions into healthcare settings and workflows.
What if you could move beyond static, fragmented real-word data (RWD) and have an ongoing conversation with research participants? Join us for a webinar on Nov 18th to learn how Viewpoint Evidence transforms research into a dynamic dialogue with direct connections to engaged, re-contactable individuals.
Large language models (LLMs) often struggle to identify and appropriately respond to psychiatric emergencies, providing unhelpful or even harmful advice that has resulted in the facilitation of suicide, self-harm, violence, and eating disordered behaviors. Our new study with Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center introduces the Verily Behavioral Health Safety Filter (VBHSF), a step forward in AI safety for mental health. The VBHSF detects mental health crises in text communications and categorizes them into specific categories of crisis. Our team evaluated the VBHSF on two independent datasets and benchmarked its performance against two state-of-the-art open source general purpose guardrails to test robustness and generalizability. The VBHSF showed strong, well-balanced performance in detecting mental health crises (high sensitivity of 0.990 and specificity of 0.992) and in identifying specific crisis categories (F1-score of 0.939), which largely generalized to an external dataset. It also outperformed open-source content moderation guardrails on sensitivity. The VBHSF demonstrates robust and generalizable performance, prioritizing sensitivity to minimize missed crises – a critical feature for healthcare applications. This research underscores our commitment to developing safe and effective AI for behavioral health.
