After years of research, startup introduces most powerful home air purification system ever built

Castus is launching crowdfunding campaign to manufacture and distribute a revolutionary air purifier, sanitizer and humidifier.

 As the world slowly emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic, health experts and citizens alike are shifting their eyes toward building a healthier, cleaner world.

In the effort to create cleaner homes, Castus is leading toward changing the way home air is purified in the post-pandemic era by introducing the most powerful air purifier, sanitiser, and humidifier ever built for residential use.

The startup has been developing its seven cutting-edge air purification technologies since 2012, with a vision to provide clean and healthy indoor air while increasing awareness of air pollution.

“Our team of scientists and engineers cares deeply about offering the ultimate air purifier,” said a company spokesperson. “The events of the last year have motivated us to think outside the box and to create something impactful.”

The Castus team, which includes chemical, mechanical, electrical, and computer science engineers in collaboration with microbiologists, formed to devise a way to purify the air on a whole new level. Their powerful new system combines seven purification technologies — ultraviolet light sterilizers (UVC), nano copper, nanosilver, anion release, medical-grade HEPA filtration, nanocrystal activated carbon and patented nano photocatalyst technologies — into a single system to efficiently monitor, detect, capture, neutralize, and eliminate airborne pollutants, bacteria, and viruses.

Designed with the home in mind, the Castus air purification’s sleek, minimalist design includes a simple yet effective LED indicator that describes the level of air purity in a home using a system of four colours representing the highest to the lowest concentration of pollutants.

Castus is recommended for use with spaces up to 54 square meters or 581 square feet. It comes in Standard, Ultra, and Ultimate models featuring super quiet operation using an eight-speed, brushless motor.

Now, Castus is launching a campaign on the Indiegogo platform to crowdfund the Castus air purifier. The goal is to invite investors to help Castus enter the mass production phase.

“We started this journey eight years ago and with five prototypes built and developed we are now ready to present Castus to the world,” the spokesperson said. “In one phrase, Castus is the ultimate air purifier, sanitiser, and humidifier. We are ready to get Castus out to you.”

For a limited time, anyone can sign up to learn more about the Castus crowdfunding campaign and access an early bird discount of 40 per cent off at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/–195024/coming soon.

New Research Highlighted at the International Society of Sports Nutrition Supports the Function of a Novel Kyowa Hakko Paraprobiotic for High Intensity Training

Kyowa Hakko showcased the latest branded ingredient innovations including IMMUSE™ Lactococcus lactis strain Plasma and EYEMUSE™ Lacticaseibacillus paracasei KW3110.

Kyowa Hakko, an international health ingredients manufacturer and world leader in the development, manufacturing, and marketing of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and food products recently participated in the International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) Conference. ISSN is the only non-profit academic society dedicated to promoting the science and application of evidence-based sports nutrition and supplementation. The ISSN is the world’s leader in providing science-based sports nutrition and supplement information.
Dr. Shintaro Ichikawa, Director of Technical Affairs at Kyowa Hakko USA, led the development and product launch of IMMUSE™, Lactococcus lactis strain plasma (LC-Plasma), in Japan and recently presented the topic “Immunological approach to reduce URTI symptoms in high intensity training: the function of paraprobiotics” during the ISSN Conference.
IMMUSE™, discovered by Kirin Holding Company Limited, a pioneer in fermentation technology and parent company to Kyowa Hakko Bio, acts uniquely by activating plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC). pDC, a key leader of the immune system, has been shown to activate pivotal cells such as NK, Killer-T, Helper-T, and B cells, providing more comprehensive immune support.

Dr. Ichikawa explains, “It is well known that prolonged high intensity exercise decreases immune function and increases the risk of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI). It is a serious problem for athletes because not only are URTIs unpleasant, they will also reduce training efficiency.”

According to Dr. Shintaro, “There is emerging evidence that has shown oral intake of LC- Plasma activates pDC and provides immune support . This novel approach to enhance the immune system may improve the experience of continuous high intensity training.”

Validated by eleven human clinical studies consisting of nine efficacy studies and two safety studies, IMMUSE™ is a science-based ingredient that functions to get the immune system ready, supporting year-round health when taken regularly.* A series of safety data including in vitro, in vivo and in human have been collected. Deemed stable in a wide variety of applications including tablets, capsules and gummy formulations, IMMUSE™ is an innovative dietary supplement ingredient delivering a breakthrough approach for immune health.

Kyowa Hakko’s newest clinically-researched eye health ingredient, EYEMUSE™, debuted at ISSN. The first heat-treated paraprobiotic, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei KW3110, that has shown to promote healthy eye function.* Discovered by Kyowa Hakko’s parent-company Kirin Holding Company Limited, EYEMUSE™ stimulates the immune cells that produce regulatory cytokines such as IL-10 to support eye health.* By helping the regulatory cytokine induction and supporting a balanced immune response, EYEMUSE™ may help reduce digital stress related eye fatigue and other ocular discomforts.*

cfunds Announces Launch of Capital Radio Podcast, To Innovate Storytelling In The Private Equity Industry

c*funds are announcing the launch of its podcast Capital Radio, which aims to innovate storytelling in the private equity industry. The podcast debuts in June, and will showcase some inspirational thought leaders from the private equity and venture capital industry. Capital Radio will be available across all major streaming platforms.

Founder and Managing Director Katalin Gallyas, who has more than 15 years of fundraising experience, says the podcast is a fresh approach to content creation and conversation in this space, which will provide ample knowledge for people who want to deepen their understanding of how the private equity industry works. “Because of COVID-19, the in-person conferences typical in the private equity world have been cancelled,” she says. “However, many of them were expensive, and featured content dominated by paid sponsors. Real discussions and authentic storytelling were missing.”

Gallyas adds that the impetus behind launching Capital Radio was to break the barrier surrounding the largely inaccessible, exclusive chain of expensive private equity events, data, and membership clubs built on legacy. The  c*funds team has been able to gain personal access to many under-the-radar LPs/investors in Europe.

Capital Radio aims to demystify the industry and highlight heroes and practitioners who’ve launched their own venture capital and private equity firms and raised large investment funds. “We want to showcase how they achieved these things from a behind-the-curtain perspective, and make their narratives more personal.”

Lieke Giltay and Liz Gapes are hosting the podcast. Giltay previously worked in finance at an economic consultancy firm and at a sustainable tech company. Gapes brings her experience in M&A and Due Diligence. At c*funds, they both support GP campaign management. They cover a range of  topics on the podcast, including how to fundraise successfully during and after COVID-19, how to make an emerging GP stand out from the other competing asset managers, and what some of their favorite investments are.

c*funds is a fund placement agency founded in 2018. The company started a smart, data-driven fundraising model  based on high-quality data, benchmarks, and digitalization. The firm experienced rapid growth since its inception, and now employs ten young international investment and fundraising specialists. “We started from the bottom up, just by doing,” Gallyas says, “and we are unique because of our diverse background and innovative approach.”

c*funds has helped with GP campaign management and with finding the right LPs/investors for, for example, early stage venture capital clients including Aera 21, which focuses on deep tech/challenges with impact globally; Blockwall, a sector-focused and independent VC firm investing in the evolution of the Internet; and Cottonwood, a high-tech/hard science  (patented) fund focused on Europe & North America.

Creative Destruction Lab Joins University of Washington’s Foster School of Business, Establishing CDL-Seattle

Focus on Computational Health Merges Strengths in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning with Biological and Biomedical Expertise to Launch Companies That Revolutionize Diagnostic and Therapeutic Outcomes

Creative Destruction Lab (CDL), a nonprofit organization for massively scalable, seed-stage, science- and technology-based companies, based at the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto, will launch its third U.S.-based location, CDL-Seattle this fall. Based at the UW’s Foster School of Business, CDL-Seattle will be a partnership with Microsoft Corporation, the UW College of Engineering, Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, and CoMotion, UW’s collaborative innovation hub. The area of focus for CDL-Seattle’s first stream is computational health.

“Think of computational health as a powerful tool in unraveling a complex, big data puzzle” Tweet this

“The rapid growth of new machine learning applications focused on enhancing human health combined with innovations in sensor technology and other complements has created a flood of new entrepreneurial opportunities that will benefit society,” said Ajay Agrawal, Founder, Creative Destruction Lab. “We’re thrilled to partner with one of the world’s great research institutions, the University of Washington, located in such a vibrant hub of global leaders in technology commercialization – the Seattle region.”

In January 2020, UW Provost Mark Richards announced the formation of the UW Innovation Roundtable comprised of some of the region’s leading venture capitalists, angel investors, and innovation leaders. One of the Roundtable’s working groups, co-chaired by Emer Dooley, Pat Hughes Faculty Fellow at Foster and Bill McAleer, founder of Voyager Capital, focused on identifying and assessing the best accelerator model to implement at UW. They evaluated five different models and selected Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) as the best option.

A partnership of investors–Artie Buerk, Neal Dempsey, Bill McAleer, Rob Short, and Steve Singh–backed CDL-Seattle, helping the initiative gain early momentum.

“I view CDL as an engine for scaling and funding deep-tech companies, which supports our brand of having an ‘innovation mindset,’” said Frank Hodge, Orin and Janet Smith Dean of the UW Foster School of Business. “It will also offer students a highly experiential, hands-on entrepreneurial education and opportunities to work with startups in an objectives-based accelerator.” Over nine months, CDL’s program provides a marketplace for technical startup founders to learn from the insights of experienced entrepreneurs, increasing their likelihood of success.

The first focus area of computational health is well suited to the strengths of UW and the strength of the region in terms of computing, medicine, and life sciences. While the past decade saw increasing use of digital health technology, the next decade will center on artificial intelligence and edge computing, with the proliferating use of health sensors. The field of Computational Health exists at the interface of biomedical signal processing, computational modeling, machine learning, and health informatics to drive innovation in research, clinical and customer-facing applications.

“CDL-Seattle is the missing link in the UW innovation ecosystem and our region,” said François Baneyx, Director of CoMotion, UW Vice Provost for Innovation, and the Charles W.H. Matthaei Professor of Chemical Engineering. “It has the potential to transform and unify research and commercialization activities in the computational health space and will help establish Seattle as a center of gravity for these sectors, while growing the strengths we already have here.”

“Think of computational health as a powerful tool in unraveling a complex, big data puzzle,” said Emer Dooley. “Whether it’s mapping the immune system, mining population health data to address inequity, or helping optimize individuals’ health care, AI and ML are essential tools. Washington state has incredible cloud computing, AI and ML expertise and a vibrant biotech sector. We need to bring the two closer together.”

Experienced entrepreneurs who have founded, led, and sold successful tech companies, along with world-leading scientists, engineers, and economists will serve as mentors to participating startups. In addition, UW students and faculty will have an opportunity to apply their expertise and learning to advance science- and technology-based companies in computational health. The successful commercialization of cutting-edge science and technology achieved through CDL has already led to the creation of over CAD $8 billion in equity value.

Selected ventures will begin the nine-month CDL program in November 2021. For more questions, reach out to the team at cdl-seattle@creativedestructionlab.com.

Applications are currently being accepted online at creativedestructionlab.com/apply.

Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine now offering Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone Replacement Therapy now available to patients in Tyler, Texas

Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine in Tyler, Texas, will now offer hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with a variety of innovative treatment administration methods to address a range of health concerns for both men and women.

Center for Aesthetic and Laser Medicine

Patients can receive HRT in a variety of application methods, including pills, creams, troches, gels, injections, and pellets. Patients with a variety of symptoms including hair loss, thyroid disorders, memory, bone loss, menopause, and infertility can be treated.

HRT is most often thought of in relation to postmenopausal women, but it can actually be used to treat both men and women.

Hormone replacement therapy for men is typically recommended when low testosterone leads to diminished libido or fatigue. Men may also experience depression, lack of motivation, joint pain, and hair loss as a result of low testosterone.

Hormone replacement therapy for women may be recommended for a variety of reasons. HRT is often used to manage symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Additionally, women may receive HRT for mood swings, fatigue, difficulty losing weight in their midsection, mood changes, sleep difficulties, and diminished libido.

Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine provides a range of HRT services, including:

Bioidentical Hormones Therapy
Bioidentical hormones are exact replicas (identical) to the hormones your own body produces. These hormones are created in a lab, like synthetic hormones, but bioidentical hormones are specifically created for your body to exactly match the natural hormones at a molecular level.

Weight Loss Program
Maintaining a healthy weight can be difficult if hormone production is off. We offer hormone therapy that helps the body produce or replace hormones that aid in thyroid and metabolic function. By triggering the production of weight loss hormones, patients who are eating healthy and exercising regularly are better able to lose weight and maintain their healthy weight.

Testosterone Therapy
Low testosterone levels have numerous negative effects, including diminished sex drive, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, loss of muscle mass, hair loss, as well as cognitive and emotional changes. Testosterone replacement therapy can help improve overall health and vitality, renew sex drive, and otherwise reverse the negative effects of low testosterone.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome treatment
Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a disordered hormone condition that occurs during a woman’s reproductive years. In the past, medical professionals used birth control to address ovarian cysts without fully understanding or treating the hormonal imbalance in other bodily systems that could cause numerous health concerns like weight gain, menstrual cycle irregularity, infertility, acne, mental health struggles, and more.

Women’s health specialist Wendy Freden, PA who has a specialization in hormone replacement therapy and aesthetic medicine will provide the service. At the age of 44, Wendy was diagnosed with invasive ductal breast cancer which provided her with a unique and personal understanding of how estrogen deficiency affects women mentally, physically, and aesthetically. Her goal is to educate women on the protective benefits of hormone therapy while maintaining preventative measures for protection against breast cancer. You will often hear her say, “When patients feel better inside, they want to look better on the outside.” She strives to help her patients enhance their natural beauty through the art of aesthetic medicine. Her patients love her transparency about her personal life and often call her, “friend”.

Wendy will be joined by Certified Nurse Practitioner Carly Graff who is certified in Advanced Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy and has years of experience treating patients with chronic diseases and hormone imbalances such as polycystic ovarian syndrome.

To schedule an appointment call 903-579-7261.
