• •Ultrahuman partnered with the Abu Dhabi Public Health Center under a two-year memorandum of understanding.
• •The biological-age model will use wearable-device data and clinical biomarkers to estimate aging pace and related health factors.
• •Ultrahuman says the system is wearable-agnostic and could take input from rings, wrist devices, straps, and patches.
• •The company said the model may eventually be available across the UAE through digital-health platforms such as TAMM and Sahatna.
• •CEO Mohit Kumar said the UAE already ranks among Ultrahuman’s 10 biggest markets and contributes roughly 4% to 5% of revenue.
• •Ultrahuman said it will deploy its algorithm on UAE data but will not train the model on that data or access personally identifiable information.

Ultrahuman has signed a two-year memorandum of understanding with the Abu Dhabi Public Health Center to develop and clinically validate a biological-age model. The system is intended to combine clinical biomarkers with data from wearables to estimate how quickly a person is aging and what factors may be influencing that pace. CEO Mohit Kumar said the model is being built to work with multiple wearable types rather than only Ultrahuman’s ring, and that it could eventually be accessed through UAE digital-health platforms including TAMM and Sahatna. The partnership reflects Ultrahuman’s effort to expand from wearable hardware into large-scale preventive-health algorithms, while the company says it will not train the model on UAE data or access personally identifiable information through the program.
