Overview
At Muno, we are developing an AI-powered platform to decode the complexities of the immune system, providing you with the insights needed to live a healthier, longer, and fuller life. Our immune systems protect us as the first line of defence and operate best when well-balanced. However, advanced tools to assess this balance are often costly and limited to specialized medical facilities. Our goal is to make comprehensive immune profiling accessible to everyone through simple blood tests combined with cutting-edge AI analysis. Our personalised immune health profile and actionable insights will help to find and maintain optimal immune function.
Participation Details
Joining the Muno-1 Study involves a single, brief appointment during which you will answer a few health-related questions and provide a blood sample. We will split your sample to compare traditional immune diagnostics with our innovative AI-based approach.
Safety and Confidentiality
Your privacy and the safety of your medical information are paramount. All personal data will be anonymized and used solely to enhance our AI algorithms and evaluate their effectiveness.
Why participate?
Your participation is crucial in helping us develop better, more accessible diagnostics. While there is no direct medical benefit from participating, you will be contributing to research that aims to benefit the broader community by enhancing our understanding of immune health.
Interested?
Thank you for considering participation in our study. If you are interested or have any questions, please contact the Medizinicum Study Team or email us at info@muno.ai. We are excited to work together to pioneer a new standard in immune health diagnostics.
FAQ
What are the eligibility criteria for participating in the Muno-1 Study?
Anyone over the age of 18 and without a known blood-borne infection can join the study.
What exactly will happen during the appointment?
When you arrive, you'll fill out a short medical questionnaire on a mobile phone or tablet, which should take about 10 minutes. Then, a nurse will collect some blood from a vein in your arm using a few small tubes. You'll also give a few drops of blood from a quick fingerprick. The whole process will take around 30 minutes.
Is there any preparation required before the appointment?
No special preparation is needed before your appointment.
Are there any risks involved in participating?
The risks are minimal and comparable to any routine blood test. You might experience some pain or bruising, and in very rare cases, there could be short-term vegetative reaction ("circulatory problems") or, even more rarely, infections or nerve damage from the blood draw.
How will my privacy be protected?
All your data will be anonymized and will stay at the clinic. Muno works solely with anonymized data for analysis.
Will I receive any results or health insights from my participation?
You won't get any results from this study. However, we plan to offer personalized immune profiles to interested participants in the future.
Is there any compensation for participating in the study?
Yes, you will be compensated with €100 for your participation.
What happens to my blood samples after the study?
Any remaining samples will be stored anonymously, in case further testing or analysis is needed later.
Can I withdraw from the study after I have participated?
Yes, you can withdraw from the study at any time, without giving a reason. If you decide to withdraw, you can ask foryour data and samples to be destroyed, as long as they haven't been anonymized yet.
Who can I contact if I have more questions or concerns?
Please speak to the study team at Medizinicum or contact us at info@muno.ai.
