Lauren Berkowitz

Welcome, I'm Lauren Berkowitz.

I care deeply about the genomic era of human health and making sure the intelligence exists to improve outcomes for the 1 in 8 who carry pathogenic variants.

I'm building the Genomic Ecosystem Explorer, the intelligence layer for pathogenic variants, the driver for precision medicine at scale.

This is what I do. I enter complex spaces just before they become obvious. I have done this in digital music, enterprise AI, human data at scale, and now inherited disease.

You can reach me via email, connect on LinkedIn, follow on Instagram, read on Substack, or browse my writing.

Track record

Western Digital
Human data at scale. Drove workforce analytics and organizational decisions across 55,000 employees and 140 countries through a major company separation and workforce of the future planning.
Bridgewater Associates
Chief of Staff to the Head of AI through 5x organizational growth and an early generative AI spin-out.
IBM
AI and enterprise health. Worked at the intersection of Watson's commercial moment and the structural separation of IBM's health business.
Argand LLC

Sony Music & Universal Music
Led digital transformation as the industry pivoted to streaming. At the table for early deals with Apple, Google, and Amazon.

My current project

Genomic Ecosystem Explorer ↗
The intelligence layer for the pathogenic variant ecosystem. Organized by biological signal across six tiers from capital to frontier science. Shows not just what exists but what is missing and where the science has run ahead of the organizational infrastructure to translate it.
