Involution client [GeneInsight](http://www.geneinsight.com), a subsidiary of Partners HealthCare is on the forefront of this revolution in personalized medicine. Last week, [Partners HealthCare was featured in a Boston Globe article](http://www.boston.com/business/healthcare/2012/12/05/partners-healthcare-quietly-making-push-become-leader-personalized-medicine/OxnEOKkfE4NBEIVLf2M7VP/story.html) detailing its ground-breaking technology in whole genome sequencing. The innovative work in this space is being done by [Partners HealthCare Center for Personalized Genetic Medicine (PCPGM)](http://pcpgm.partners.org/), which is dedicated to making people’s lives healthier and better by transforming the practice of medicine through increased personalization — based on the accelerated integration of genetic knowledge into clinical care.

Last week, at DEMO Fall 2012 — the conference for emerging technologies held at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California — Neumitra launched Bandu, its ground-breaking product for stress monitoring and reduction. Bandu monitors your body's autonomic nervous system, alerting you to moments of high stress and providing personalized solutions and suggestions to help you reach a state of calm. At the conference, [Neumitra won a coveted "DEMO gods" award](http://venturebeat.com/2012/10/03/demo-gods-birds-brains-and-the-best-products-of-the-season/), and was [named by Tech Crunch as one of DEMO's most interesting startups](http://techcrunch.com/2012/10/05/the-14-most-interesting-startups-to-emerge-from-demo/). Neumitra co-founder Robert Goldberg speaks about Bandu at the DEMO conference. The deleterious health effects of stress are innumerable and under-appreciated: emotional and physical disorders linked to stress include everything from depression and anxiety to heart attacks and stroke. Bandu monitors your body’s stress levels via a watch-like device that measures a variety of metrics including skin conductance, movement, and temperature. When you're in a stressful situation, the device alerts you, initiating actions via your iPhone to help mitigate the problem. Bandu might ask you to listen to music, play a game, or give a friend or family member a call. In addition, Bandu learns if the suggested activity lowers your stress and displays the results on your smartphone in real time. With Bandu, you can determine the sources of stress in your life and do something about it.
