Proposal details
My name is Dr. Charles Awuzie, co-founder of Transhuman Coin and a Member of Forbes Business Council. Last year I was diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases which were genetically inherited from my parents. My condition was life threatening but could have been detected/understood earlier if there was a ledger which stored genetic data on the blockchain. We at the Transhuman Coin have partnered with the South African Medical Research Council and Itheum to develop and maintain a blockchain ledger which stores genetic and health data for the purpose of research. The uniqueness of our project is that owners of the data will receive incentives each time their data is used for the purpose of research. This will provide some economic relief to the owners of the data who are predominantly from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Here is a YOUTUBE evidence of one of our engagements with the South African Medical Research Council and itheum on the project.
Project Name
TRANSHUMAN COIN
Project Type
A decentralised database to store genetic and health data on the blockchain for the purpose of research on genetic diseases while financially rewarding contributors of the data in Cryptocurrency.
Proposal Description
The South African Medical Research Center has committed to use genetic and health data from our community in carrying out research through their network of extramural research units.. This demonstrates the relevance of genetic and health data in the scientific research community. It is also important to note that storing genetic data on the blockchain will increase reliability, availability and scalability of genetic data while ensuring transparency in how genetic data is used and thus empowering the real owners of the data economically through incentives.
Our project will also benefit the ioTex ecosystem who could earn rewards for contributing to medical research.
Transhuman Coin currently has over 14,000 holders and 16,000 community members who are looking forward to this next phase of our project which will enable them to contribute to medical research and earn from their contribution.
We have a 12 member Scientific Advisory Board led by Google Award Winning Brain-Computer-Interface expert - Ass. Professor Avinash Singh from University of Technology, Sydey, Australia - University of Technology Sydney
Also on our Scientific Advisory Board is Dr. Jose Cordeiro - MIT trained engineer -
Our highly qualified team members are doxxed in our WHITEPAPER
Our token is currently deployed on the Binance Smart Chain.
We have partnered with a manufacturer in China to supply smart devices which are currently available on our E-shop and can be purchased using Transhuman Coin. Please click on the images to see details of each device.
These devices generate health data which we hope to sync with iotex and itheum.
Our devices easily connect with Samsung health, Apple health, Fitbit app, Google Fit and our goal is to sync data with the blockchain via ioTex.
Skill Requirement:
We will be glad to have members of ioTex/MachineFi development team collaborate with our dev team on this project.
