On this episode of the Playbook, I have Dr. Omed for RogueZod, chair, CEO and founder of the

incredible company, Seer. And we're going to talk about identifying what inner fears with what

we already have are health. Join me learning about proteomics and its platform here on the Playbook.

This is Entrepreneurs the Playbook. For each week, I bring you some of the greatest athletes,

celebrities and entrepreneurs to talk about their personal and professional playbook to success

and what made them champions on the field and in the boardroom. I'm your host, David Meltzer.

I have an incredible scholar but also rare enough a serial entrepreneur Omed for RogueZod,

chair and CEO, founder of Seer. And he deals and I hope I pronounce this right Omed. It's proteomics

which is an entirely new space for me. So let's talk in Dave Meltzer's terms. I know they call it

layman's terms. I call it Dave Meltzer's term because if Dave Meltzer can understand this,

everybody will. So if you could just give me a little bit of background including

reproduciating proteomics and give us some background on in layman's term, what exactly that is.

Sure. David, thank you for having me on. So proteomics is the study of the proteins in the body.

And I think most folks readily see the big idea with genomics or the study of the genes and DNA.

So if you imagine the genes are the loose transcript of your information that the body has,

the proteins are those information in the context of their function. So virtually anything that

happens in the body happens because one protein or a group of proteins coming together to form

a modules come together and they exert a function. So for example enzymes that break things down

or molecules that allow different things to cross the cell membrane just about anything.

Disease health, they're changing in protein that basically dictates how the body functions.

And the study of the proteome is to study the totality of this information in health and disease

you know for clinical or for translational use.
