Investor Mary Minno, a former Google product manager, unveiled Treehub, a six‑month residency‑venture accelerator, and its companion AI Health Fund on Wednesday. The program pairs early‑stage founders with Stanford biomedical data scientists to accelerate AI‑driven health solutions. Minno’s personal experience with a family member’s leukemia sparked the push to streamline specialist access and modernize treatment pathways.

Treehub’s curriculum divides the first twelve weeks into product‑market fit coaching, followed by another twelve weeks of strategic planning, including fundraising, accelerator pathways or hospital deployments. The AI Health Fund aims to raise $10 million, having closed its round at $1.5 million with a $1 million contribution from Tim Draper and $500,000 from friends and family. Anne Wojcicki joins as partner, while Esther Wojcicki serves as founding advisor.

To date the fund has backed 12 Treehub alumni, including Clair Health’s hormone tracker and a pediatric autism venture led by Dennis Walls. Minno plans to support at least 60 companies in the first cohort, offering hands‑on resources such as legal incorporation support and growth meetings. The model aims to prove that early, academically sourced AI health startups can scale without a traditional demo day.
