Experimental research platform exploring non-invasive biophysical signal analysis. Northlight applies Heimdall's pattern detection principles to cellular acoustic signatures in controlled laboratory environments.
Investigating how cellular mechanical properties (stiffness, viscosity, size) correlate with acoustic response signatures. Based on published research in mechanobiology and ultrasound physics.
Approach: Physics-informed modeling of acoustic-cellular interactions, validated against known cell line properties from peer-reviewed literature.
Exploring whether Heimdall's baseline-deviation-evidence framework can identify anomalous cellular populations in experimental samples.
Status: Computational modeling and simulation phase. No human or clinical testing. Collaboration with academic researchers for validation.
Investigating theoretical detection limits and signal-to-noise challenges for acoustic-based cellular interrogation.
Goal: Understand fundamental physics constraints before any hardware development. Focus on specificity and reproducibility.
Explore a visualization of how different cellular phenotypes respond to acoustic stimulation based on published biophysical data. This is an educational simulation, not a diagnostic tool.

Northlight Medical is seeking academic and research partners for validation studies, experimental design, and theoretical modeling.
If your lab studies mechanobiology, acoustic sensing, or cellular biophysics, we're interested in collaboration on model validation and experimental design.
Areas of Interest: Cell mechanics, ultrasound physics, signal processing, cancer biology, or related fields.
We're open to discussions about research pathways, regulatory requirements, and validation frameworks if this approach shows promise in laboratory settings.
Current Stage: Early research. Any clinical pathway would require extensive validation, regulatory approval, and clinical trials.
To be absolutely clear about the current status and limitations:
Northlight Medical is purely a research concept at this stage. Any future clinical application would require rigorous validation, peer review, regulatory approval, and clinical trials.
If you're an academic researcher or institution interested in exploring this approach, we'd welcome a conversation.
