about

Clinicae is a research and development initiative focused on modeling human physiology as a state-dependent system.

The work brings together clinical practice, systems biology, and computational design to better understand variability in biological response and to structure how interventions are selected, timed, and applied.

Rather than introducing new interventions in isolation, Clinicae focuses on the conditions under which existing and emerging interventions succeed or fail.

Work

Current work includes:

  • development of system-state frameworks

  • computational modeling of physiology (OPAL)

  • domain-specific models (e.g., estrogen, bone)

  • translation into targeted, tissue-level applications (The Vulva Company)

Founder

Clinicae was founded by Dr. Laura Kelly, DAOM.

Her work focuses on understanding how physiology changes in midlife and why standard interventions often produce inconsistent results. Her approach integrates clinical care, research, and product development, with an emphasis on identifying the underlying biological conditions that shape response to treatment. Through Clinicae, she develops frameworks that move beyond single-variable models toward a more integrated view of human physiology.

.say hello

Clinicae is being developed as both a conceptual framework and a set of applied systems. We welcome thoughful engagement with individuals and organizations interested in advancing this model through strategic partnership, research collaboration, and aligned early-stage support. Areas of interest include: • platform and systems development in collaboration with aligned partners • domain-specific applications of the model • research and publication collaboration • selective early-stage capital aligned with long-term system building. We are particularly interested in working with groups experienced in building from first principles, where conceptual and architectural integrity are central to development. If the work resonates, we welcome thoughtful connection.
