Tempus is focused on advancing precision medicine through its proprietary data platform that ingests multi-modal data across major disease types and analyzes that data looking for therapeutically relevant insights. Tempus organizes phenotypic, morphological, and molecular data in real-time, enabling the company to add clinical context to physician-ordered laboratory tests. Tempus’ “smart” laboratory tests are available clinically, touching the lives of millions of patients in the U.S.
