About

The Living Room Lab is an onsite interactive testing suite encouraging our community to measure, monitor, and gain insight into their longevity and health using the latest, scientifically validated tools. A central feature at the heart of the DOC experience, the lab is an inviting, comfortable lounge spotlighting 6-7 highly-curated, science-driven early-stage healthcare companies, each focused on understanding a crucial aspect of an individual’s health optimization. Each invited company is exclusive to its category and explicitly endorsed by DOC’s founders.

We’re thrilled to announce the return of the Living Room Lab for DOC 2025, presented by SimonMed Imaging — one of the largest outpatient medical imaging providers in the U.S., integrating cutting-edge AI technology and state-of-the-art imaging solutions to enhance early disease detection and patient care.

As we curate this year's lineup for the Living Room Lab, take a look back at the incredible innovations showcased at DOC 2024's Living Room Lab.  We featured groundbreaking work from Aetas Diagnostics, BrainKey, Cleerly Health, Empower Sleep, Jona, Owlstone Medical, and, of course, Ultrahuman —our esteemed 2024 Living Room Lab Presenting Partner.
