Thorne HealthTech Enters into Research and Development Partnership with Arome Science to Develop Next-Generation Metabolomics Test
Arome Science and Thorne will collaborate to develop a commercial metabolomics wellness test. The test will be used to support research studies using at-home blood collection via Thorne's OneDraw® medical device, which was recently selected as Best Overall Medical Device Product in the 2023 MedTech Breakthrough Awards. The metabolomics test will be further developed and validated for an eventual offering in the consumer space.
"Metabolomics measurements are the next wave of important datasets that will give consumers greater control and a better understanding of their health," said Dr. Nathan Price, Chief Scientific Officer of Thorne HealthTech. "There are thousands of metabolites in the body that can be measured, which can reveal key insights into helping individuals live healthier longer. Thorne's belief in personalized scientific wellness and the power of metabolomics is further fueled by our partnership with Arome Science and partnering together to develop a test that can provide an incredibly personalized view of one's health from the comfort of their own home."
Developing this metabolomics test continues to advance Thorne's industry-leading health ecosystem, bringing together advanced testing, AI-driven insights, and the ability to deliver personalized solutions through more than 300 natural products manufactured at the highest quality.
"From our near pain-free OneDraw experience to our proprietary microbiome wipe, our commitment to providing a best-in-class integrated experience to our customers is what we are working on constantly and take great pride in," said Paul Jacobson, CEO of Thorne HealthTech. "As we develop the metabolomics test and work with Arome, this will enable us to further deliver and expand on our promise of deep personalization to support and enhance the health and wellness of our customers."
"Metabolomics testing is arguably one of the most informative ways to understand the real-time status of an individual's health," said Alexey Melnik, CEO of Arome Science. "Our research and development partnership with Thorne makes way for the development of a powerful metabolomics test that will be used for research studies and ultimately by consumers."
