About Daniel Kraft
Download ProfileDaniel Kraft is a Stanford and Harvard-trained physician-scientist, inventor, entrepreneur, and innovator. With over 25 years of experience in clinical practice, biomedical research and healthcare innovation, Kraft has served as faculty chair for Medicine at Singularity University since its inception in 2008, and in 2011 founded NextMed Health (previously called Exponential Medicine) a program and community that explores convergent, rapidly developing technologies and their potential in biomedicine and healthcare. He serves as Chair of the XPRIZE Pandemic & Health Alliance.
Following undergraduate degrees from Brown University and medical school at Stanford, Daniel was Board Certified in both Internal Medicine & Pediatrics after completing a Harvard residency at the Massachusetts General Hospital & Boston Children’s Hospital, and fellowships in hematology, oncology, and bone marrow transplantation at Stanford.
Daniel is a member of the Inaugural class of the Aspen Institute Health Innovators Fellowship and is member of the Kauffman Fellows Society. He is a managing partner with Continuum Health Ventures which is focused on funding early stage health tech companies enabling the democratization of health and improved healthspan for all.
He is often called upon to speak to the future of health, medicine and technology and has given four TED and two TEDMED Talks and has delivered keynotes to a diverse array of organizations.
He has multiple scientific publications (including in Nature and Science) and medical device, immunology, and stem cell-related patents through NIH-funded faculty positions with Stanford University School of Medicine and as clinical faculty for the pediatric bone marrow transplantation service at the University of California San Francisco.
Daniel’s academic research has focused on: stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, stem cell-derived immunotherapies for cancer, bioengineering human T-cell differentiation, and humanized animal models. His research has been published in journals that include Nature and Science. His clinical work has focused on: bone marrow & hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for malignant and non-malignant diseases in adults and children, medical devices to enable stem cell based regenerative medicine.
He is heavily involved in digital health, founded Digital.Health, is on the board of Healthy.io and advises several Fortune-50 and digital health-related startups. Daniel recently founded IntelliMedicine, focused on personalized, data-driven, precision medicine. He is also the inventor of the MarrowMiner, an FDA-approved device for the minimally invasive harvest of bone marrow, and founded RegenMed Systems, a company developing technologies to enable adult stem cell-based regenerative therapies.
Daniel is an avid pilot and has served in the Massachusetts and California Air National Guard as an officer and flight surgeon with F-15 & F-16 fighter Squadrons. He has conducted research on aerospace medicine that was published with NASA, with whom he was a finalist for astronaut selection.

Speech Topics
Download TopicsA fast-paced look at the impact and potential of accelerating technologies (from AI, Big Data, Wearables, Digital Health, Personal Genomics, Synthetic Biology, to Virtual/Augmented Reality,, 3D printing and beyond),
An update on what’s ‘Now, Near and Next’ across health and wellness, prevention, diagnostics, therapeutics, health span and the future of healthcare and biomedicine.
Actionable steps that healthcare leaders, organizations, clinicians to consumers & patients can take to leverage many exponential technologies and to integrate novel solutions to address challenges across the healthcare continuum.
As GPT / LLMs and Big Data advance rapidly they are having profound implications on society, and especially on the practice of medicine, clinical care, self-care, to catalyzing drug discovery and exciting new approaches to address many grand challenges in health in medicine.
This talk will highlight a ‘101 on AI related to healthcare’ and provide compelling examples of the state-of-the-art and ways to apply to prevention, public health, diagnostic sand therapy.
Dramatic and disruptive implications for democratizing access to health data, insights and actionable information coming from wearables, to ‘digital twin’ models.
Share a view of the art of the possible and what’s coming next, and how clinicians, leaders and organizations can engage and prepare for the new AI enabled ‘Generative Health’ age.
Covid acted as a catalyst for healthcare innovation, from the acceleration of mRNA vaccines to virtualized cared, novel home diagnostics to digitally enabled medicine and remote patient monitoring.
This talk will explore the convergence of emerging and rapidly developing technologies beyond traditional ‘sick care’, to true ‘health’ care.
Ways that individuals to clinicians to health systems can provide more personalized, proactive care models to optimize for long, healthy lives (health span), including addressing and optimizing the social determinants of health.
Explore the cutting edge of approaches to extending lifespan, from novel therapeutics to stem cell and regenerative medicine, emerging gene therapy and beyond.
As health and medicine becomes more data driven, leveraging everything from wearables and digital biomarkers, virtual reality to Internet of Medical Things, and the availability of low cost personal ‘omics’, new avenues open to help optimize health and prevention, diagnose disease at ‘Stage 0’ and better integrate crowd-sourced knowledge to optimize wellness, therapy and outcomes.
This talk will explore emerging examples of next-gen wearables and ‘otherables’ in our increasingly mobile, connected, AI and digitally enabled world and how digital health and medicine has the potential to reshape almost every element of health(care), while improving access, equity and improving outcomes at lower costs.
Lessons from disruptions in other fields and how they apply to healthcare and medicine.
Tools and resources the audience can use today to uplevel their own health and ‘self-care’ and offerings of their organizations (whether healthcare focused) can begin to leverage today, and set themselves up for success and positive impact int he future.
New approaches to diagnostics, from molecular to digital
Redesigning care on the frontlines from the ER/ICU to primary care
Acceleration of virtualized care, from telemedicine to connected, data driven
Therapy acceleration: from drug discovery and clinical trials to vaccine development
Public health/global health collaborations and emerging platforms that will impact the future of health and medicine, to prevention, detection and response of future pandemics
Understanding the accelerating use of connected health solutions, remote patient monitoring for high-risk patients, and standard care
Cutting edge and future of telehealth
Future of the hospital
The Virtualist: role and abilities of the future clinician
