Our Team

Benedikt Thüngen

Founder & CEO

Benedikt von Thüngen

I’m the CEO and Founder of Sanome, thanks for stopping by.

My academic background is in biosciences, however, my passion is building and scaling companies. I started my entrepreneurial journey during my undergraduate degree and have since built multiple companies across renewable energy, enterprise software, AI, drug discovery, and healthcare.

My long-term vision is to build a human digital twin (read more here) that allows us to predict any changes to someone’s health before they actually occur. Early detection of disease will truly transform healthcare and that’s why I started Sanome.

AI/ ML Lead

Dr Andrew Creagh - BA, BAI, MAI, MA (Oxon.), D.Phil (Oxon.)

I am the lead AI/ML Scientist at Sanome. I am also concurrently a visiting researcher in Digital Health & AI/ML at the Computational Health Informatics (CHI) laboratory at the University of Oxford.

I'm leading the development of our multimodal AI-powered early warning systems (EWS) for early detection of clinical events.

I'm super excited to be working with Sanome and our clinical partners to help shift the needle towards truly personalised and preventative healthcare.

Eddie Pease

Engineering Lead

Eddie Pease - BA, MA (Oxon), MSc

I’m the Engineering Lead at Sanome.

I am responsible for the engineering function at Sanome. I work with our hospital partners to help them clean and rationalise their data, deploy our co-designed clinical tools that the data scientists develop and ensure that our infrastructure is robust and secure.

I think that the technology that we are developing here at Sanome is urgently needed, in the UK and worldwide, to enable a shift to a more preventative healthcare system at time when healthcare systems globally are struggling with increased demand.
