  "account": "Swiss preventive healthcare company Aeon has acquired German blood diagnostics platform Aware Health, bringing the company's total Seed funding to over €12 million. The acquisition marks a significant step towards Aeon's vision of redefining preventive care with a continuous, longitudinal health picture combining whole-body imaging and recurring blood diagnostics.\n\nFounded in 2023, Aeon's AI-powered platform integrates whole-body MRI, capable of detecting over 500 possible anomalies, with blood diagnostics covering more than 100 biomarkers and analysis of genetic risks. The acquisition of Aware Health, which serves close to 10,000 active customers, adds a trusted consumer health brand and a platform that makes advanced diagnostics accessible and easy to understand.\n\nWith the combination of Aeon's imaging and Aware Health's blood diagnostics, the acquired platform is expected to create a longitudinal health record per customer, updated quarter after quarter. The AI models will analyze this multimodal data to detect trends, flag deviations early, and predict individual health risks before they become diseases.\n\nAware Health's co-founder, Ferdinand Schmidt-Thomé, expressed pride in their team's work and the opportunity to continue growing as part of Aeon's broader preventive health offering. Pablo Tano, the new AI Lead, will head the development of the platform's intelligence layer, focusing on AI models that read across imaging, blood biomarkers, and genetic data to deliver personalized risk prediction and tailored health interventions.",
