Inheren Medical Strategies
Inheren Medical Strategies focuses on prevention. We take what is known about preeclampsia and build it into tools a woman can use before it starts.
What we are building
Our first product has three parts.
The book is for women with a history of preeclampsia, and for anyone who wants to understand the disease. It explains what preeclampsia is, why it happens, and what can be done to prevent it.
The public education explains, in plain language, what preeclampsia is, the different biological processes that can lead to it, and what can be done to prevent it.
The Companion helps you understand your risk: which biological processes apply to you, what the evidence says about prevention in your situation, and what you can do about it.
Why it is personal
Different biological processes can lead to the same diagnosis, and those differences matter when we try to prevent it. Women do not all develop preeclampsia through the same biological mechanisms, and they do not necessarily respond to the same interventions.
Inheren begins with the woman's history, her underlying biology, and the evidence supporting prevention.
Who is behind it
Dr. Jenkins is a maternal-fetal medicine physician who directed maternal-fetal medicine at MedStar Harbor Hospital in Baltimore for more than two decades, caring for high-risk pregnancies.
His early research was on first-trimester screening for preeclampsia, maternal risk factors, angiogenic markers, and placental biology. Inheren grew out of that work.
