Yale-born fetal brain monitoring startup Wavelet secures $7M to prevent birth injuries

Wavelet Medical has secured $7 million in seed funding from Aegis Ventures to commercialise the first non-invasive, AI-powered fetal electroencephalography monitoring platform. The technology, developed at Yale, aims to detect fetal brain distress in real time and prevent avoidable brain injury at birth. Founded by Liz Golden, Dr Emily Lee and Dr Jose Cortes-Briones, Wavelet uses EEG captured through the mother's abdomen and reconstructed with AI algorithms to identify neurological distress, addressing limitations of traditional fetal heart rate monitoring, which is indeterminate in up to 85% of births. The platform targets a significant problem: over 35,000 infants suffer birth-related brain injuries annually in the US alone. Wavelet's partnership with Aegis Ventures will accelerate product development, clinical adoption and commercialisation of the technology.
