The Index › Metabolic medicine

Whose care and services may the drugs change?

The providers of care, testing and treatment whose demand may change as the drugs spread.

The waterfall's proof point: Metabolic medicine: laboratory throughput is the productivity lift's nearest proof point, and it reports in pipeline data on a clock of quarters.

Businesses keep adopting AI, but the economy-wide productivity lift does not arrive before 2028.

What would prove us wrong

Productivity jumps much sooner than we expect, or adoption stops spreading.
