BIO Protocol Announced Long COVID Labs Launch on January 9 to Redefine Medicine Future

The 63rd project on Binance Launchpool plans to accelerate a cure with DeSci

Key Points

  • On January 9, BioDAO launches Long COVID Labs (COVID).
  • BIO Protocol was Binance Launchpool’s 63rd project, and Binance listed BIO on January 3rd.

BIO Protocol announced via a post on X that Long COVID Labs launches tomorrow, January 9, and it will accelerate a cure with DeSci.

The ticker of the project will be COVID and contributors include current and ex-Stanford researchers. The project will distribute 1% of the token supply to BIO holders who take part in the auction.

Long COVID Labs Vision

The project revealed via X important details about their vision, starting by saying that even if COVID-19 left the headlines, it never left peoples’ bodies. They addressed that 20% of recovered patients still have viral remnants including spike proteins in their bloodstream.

Also, they noted that 40% of people diagnosed with long Covid suffer from chronic illness.

Long COVID Labs was reportedly created to tackle these challenges with a bold vision:

  1. Cure Long COVID
  2. Unlock treatments for billions of people worldwide
  3. Redefine the future of medicine.

Project Founders

The founders of the project include the following specialists:

  • Rohan Dixit – serial healthcare entrepreneur and former neuroscientist at Standford and MGH Martinos Center who was himself diagnosed with Long Covid.
  • Ruth Ann Crystal (MD) – Stanford physician entrepreneur who runs one of the largest Covid-19 newsletters.
  • Jacob Glenville – computational immunoengineer, Centivax founder.
  • Annelise Barron – Stanford professor of bioengineering, studying new therapies.

Largest Decentralized Clinical Trial Network

In the X thread, the project claims to be the largest decentralized trial network ever built, involving machine learning that:

  • Identifies patterns
  • Optimizes trials
  • Suggests individualized treatments

The project also noted that while Big Pharma ruled medicine for decades, profiting from slow and expensive processes that prioritize investors over patients, now Long COVID Labs will change this paradigm, focusing on patients.

Getting Involved

The project uses a DAO model where individuals/patients hold governance tokens (COVID) that allow them to vote on proposals, recommend research directions, and oversee financial proceeds.

There are two ways to earn COVID tokens:

  • Contributing through research
  • Support the research financially by buying COVID tokens directly

The BIO Protocol was announced as Binance Launchpool’s 63rd project in December 2024.
