Expansion anchored by two top neurological health systems, structured AD biomarker data, and validated outcomes measures across neurological disease areas. Whole-population ingestion shifts NeuroBlu from patient counts to research-grade signal.
NEW YORK, May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Holmusk today announced a major expansion of NeuroBlu, growing to over 46 million de-identified patient lives sourced from longitudinal EHR data - an increase of more than 5 million - while adding two top ranked neurological health systems, structured biomarker data, and validated outcomes measures across neurological disease areas. In this latest NeuroBlu release (26R2), over 41% of patients - representing 19 million de-identified patient lives - carry both neurological and behavioral health diagnoses within the same longitudinal record. A new standard for neurology real-world evidence.
"The convergence of neurological and behavioral health diagnoses within the same longitudinal record is not a feature. It is the structural foundation of the platform." — Nawal Roy, Founder & CEO, Holmusk
PATIENT POPULATION GROWTH
NeuroBlu 26R2 adds more than 5 million de-identified patient lives, bringing the platform to over 46 million across mental health, neurology, and neurodegenerative conditions. The expansion is anchored by two new top-ranked neurological health systems (top U.S. News & World Report ranked Neurology hospitals):
These additions strengthen NeuroBlu's geographic and care-setting representativeness - spanning community clinics, academic medical centers, and specialty neurology programs across the United States.
Claims Linkage Ready
NeuroBlu's longitudinal EHR data is linkage-ready through the DataVant ecosystem - enabling life sciences organizations to connect NeuroBlu's clinical depth to claims datasets for a broader longitudinal view of the patient journey across care settings and payer channels.
NEUROLOGY DATA DEPTH
NeuroBlu 26R2 delivers clinically deep, longitudinal data across neurological disease areas:
Biomarker Data
For Alzheimer's disease research, where patient stratification by amyloid and tau burden is increasingly central to trial eligibility and endpoint design, NeuroBlu 26R2 provides structured biomarker laboratory data within Alzheimer's disease — capturing amyloid and tau assessments across the patient population.
The dataset includes over 4,600 occurrences of a widely used tau biomarker assay, with 32,000 total biomarker-linked records across amyloid and tau combined - providing a growing, clinically grounded AD biomarker cohort for trial support, progression modeling, and treatment response research.
Validated Outcomes Measures
NeuroBlu's clinical observability extends to structured, validated outcomes measures across disease areas - shifting the platform from patient counts to research-grade signal:
"When pharma teams ask if we have biomarker-confirmed AD patients with longitudinal psychiatric comorbidity and cognitive scale data — the answer is yes. When they ask about Parkinson's with motor assessments, linked sleep data and longitudinal neurological progression — yes. That level of specificity supports the evidence-generation and regulatory-oriented research workflows NeuroBlu can support." — Alex Vance, Chief Clinical Data Officer, Holmusk
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COMORBIDITY COVERAGE
NeuroBlu's whole-population ingestion model - including full mental health diagnostic (F-code) coverage - means neurological and behavioral health conditions are captured together within the same longitudinal record - not assembled as separate cohorts. In 26R2, over 19 million de-identified patient lives (41% of the platform) carry both neurological and behavioral health diagnoses. This structural characteristic is clinically grounded: comorbidity rates across conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and migraine are consistent with published literature, and psychiatric outcomes measures (PHQ-9, GAD-7) are available within the same patient record as neurological progression data.
Advanced Neuroimaging
NeuroBlu 26R2 captures structured neuroimaging encounter data - including modality type, ordering context, and MRI and PET event capture - across the neurological patient population. Structured clinical interpretation and results notes are expected to be available later in 2026, at which point NeuroBlu will support linked imaging context within the longitudinal patient record for disease progression and treatment response analysis.
AVAILABILITY
NeuroBlu 26R2 is available now to life sciences, biopharma, and biotech organizations. Pharma teams evaluating observational study design for AD or Parkinson's progression are encouraged to request a data specification overview now. To explore the dataset or schedule a demonstration, visit holmusk.com or contact enquiry@holmusk.com.
Looking ahead: Organizations with specific disease, biomarker, or outcomes data requirements are encouraged to engage early - NeuroBlu works directly with pharma partners to assess data availability and prioritize coverage across its expanding network.

Die von US-Präsident Donald Trump angekündigten Zölle von 25 Prozent auf Neuwagenimporte aus der Europäischen Union würden nach Einschätzung von Branchenexperten vor allem die deutsche Autoindustrie treffen. Berechnungen des Center Automotive Research (CAR) in Bochum zufolge kämen allein auf die Autoproduktion in Deutschland zusätzliche Belastungen von rund 2,5 Milliarden Euro pro Jahr zu. Hinzu kämen weitere Kosten für US-Exporte deutscher Hersteller aus Werken in anderen EU-Staaten.
Obwohl sich die Maßnahmen formal gegen die gesamte EU richten, sieht CAR-Direktor Ferdinand Dudenhöffer insbesondere Deutschland im Visier Washingtons. Die Exporte anderer ausländischer Autobauer in die USA seien „unwesentlich“, sagte er und sprach mit Blick auf die neuen Zoll-Drohungen vom möglichen Beginn eines „Wirtschaftskriegs gegen Deutschland“. Die Maßnahmen würden die Hersteller jedoch unterschiedlich hart treffen, abhängig von ihrer Produktionsstruktur und Präsenz in den Vereinigten Staaten.
Relativ besser gestellt wären demnach Konzerne wie BMW und Mercedes-Benz, die über umfangreiche Produktionskapazitäten in den USA verfügen. In ihren US-Werken fertigen sie vor allem SUV-Modelle, die den Großteil ihrer Verkäufe auf dem US-Markt ausmachen. Diese lokale Produktion wirkt nach Einschätzung Dudenhöffers wie ein „Zollschutz“, weil in den USA montierte Fahrzeuge nicht unter die geplanten Importzölle auf Neuwagen aus der EU fallen würden.
Deutlich verwundbarer wären dagegen Marken wie Audi und Porsche, die ihre Fahrzeuge bislang weitgehend aus Europa in die USA liefern. Für sie könnten die neuen Einfuhrabgaben ein Anreiz sein, Pläne zum Aufbau eigener Produktionsstätten in den Vereinigten Staaten zu beschleunigen. Vollständig auffangen können die Hersteller die zusätzlichen Kosten nach Einschätzung des CAR-Instituts jedoch nicht. Ein Teil der Belastungen dürfte über Preiserhöhungen an die US-Käufer weitergegeben werden. Dank der starken Markenbindung rechnet Dudenhöffer zwar nicht mit einem abrupten Nachfrageeinbruch, die deutschen Autobauer stünden jedoch vor der Herausforderung, ihre Preissetzung und Standortstrategie zügig an die neue handelspolitische Lage anzupassen.
