What to Know

Signature approach

Dawson's TruDiagnostic work sits at the bridge between clinical pattern recognition and lab product strategy. He brings the same education-first style from emergency ultrasound into epigenetic testing: make the tool understandable, publish the science, and help clinicians and consumers see how methylation data can guide a longevity plan.

What sets them apart

  • Two-company longevity arc. Dawson co-founded Wild Health as the clinical precision-medicine side, then moved into TruDiagnostic as the lab and biological-age testing side.
  • Educator before executive. His ultrasound teaching career produced textbooks, podcasts, national awards, and lectures in 20+ countries.
  • Clinical founder operating a lab. He leads the CLIA-certified company developing and commercializing the epigenetic clock products.
