The Big One A breakdown of the day's biggest Inno story. Miranda: On a search to diversify the health tech industry, a startup is working to build an online approach to holistic healing and personal nutrition.
Hologram Sciences founder Ian Brady said he decided to work in health tech after his wife had developed gestational diabetes. Unable to find a personalized nutrition plan to aid his wife’s healing, Brady founded Hologram, an online provider of diagnostics, digital feedback and custom formulated products to aid immunity, gut and brain health.
