As healthcare organizations grapple with mounting operational pressures and limited resources, the path to meaningful innovation can feel out of reach. Caduceus ADVISORY brings a unique combination of early-stage venture capital experience and deep management consulting expertise to help clients navigate today's challenges while unlocking the incredible opportunities of tomorrow.
'Each month, our team evaluates hundreds of digital health startups, investing only in those with the potential to truly transform the industry,' said Dave Vreeland, Senior Managing Partner at Caduceus Capital Partners. 'That constant market engagement gives us real-time visibility into emerging technologies and the ability to rapidly align them with health system needs. The $5 Trillion U.S. healthcare system, historically human labor intensive and notoriously slow to adopt new technologies, is poised for more change in the coming decade than the industry has experienced in the last century. We look forward to bringing this intelligence to bear for clients looking to scale innovation with speed, clarity, simplicity, and impact.'
Caduceus has appointed Adam Bauer, Managing Partner at Caduceus Capital Partners, as CEO of Caduceus ADVISORY. In this role, Bauer will lead the practice's strategy and execution, helping healthcare clients harness the power of AI and next-generation technology innovations.

NY transit authority orders nation's first battery-electric passenger locomotive
This story was originally published on Smart Cities Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Smart Cities Dive newsletter. Dive Brief: The New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority ordered 13 battery-electric passenger locomotives to serve trains on its Metro-North lines, marking the first use of the technology in North America. Siemens Mobility will manufacture the locomotives in its Sacramento, California, facility and expects they will go into service in 2029, the company's interim CEO, Tobias Bauer, said in an interview. The dual-mode locomotives, which can draw electric power from overhead wires and switch to battery power where those are not available, could avoid passengers having to change trains from Manhattan to some destinations in Connecticut, Bauer said. Dive Insight: Transit agencies in the U.S. are exploring alternatives to diesel-powered locomotives, which impact human health and the environment, and electric locomotives, which require expensive infrastructure such as overhead wires. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority; Caltrain, a commuter rail line that serves the San Francisco Peninsula; Southern California's Metrolink system; and the Chicago-area Metra commuter railroad are planning for battery-electric or hydrogen-powered trains. The Siemens battery-electric locomotive is an adaptation of its Charger locomotive, which is available powered either by diesel engines or external electric infrastructure. More than 400 such locomotives have been sold to date in North America. The new battery-electric locomotive will seamlessly transition from overhead power to battery power. 'The locomotive itself knows where it is and when it has to switch,' Bauer said. The MTA said the locomotives will bring trains from its New Haven, Connecticut, line to Penn Station, a project that includes four new train stations in the Bronx borough of New York City. 'What better way to inaugurate this new service than with cutting edge battery-electric locomotives that will set a new standard for environmental friendliness and overall reliability?' Metro-North Railroad President Catherine Rinaldi said in a statement. Siemens Mobility also provided a map that shows other destinations the battery-electric locomotive could serve, including Danbury and Waterbury, Connecticut, which are on non-electrified lines. Commuter trains from Croton-Harmon, New York, which now go to Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan, could also go to Penn Station using the battery-electric locomotives. The battery-electric locomotives provide 'a lot of flexibility,' Bauer said. The locomotives can operate up to 125 mph and run on battery power for up to 100 miles.

Owner Notices Bernese Mountain Dog Changing Color, Reason Goes Viral
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A Bernese mountain dog with vitiligo has melted hearts online with his unusual appearance. With their black-and-brown fur, Bernese mountain dogs have very distinctive markings that make them instantly recognizable. But one adorable pup, named Bauer, certainly stands out after losing his regular markings and developing an almost-entirely white fur coat instead. Bauer has vitiligo, an uncommon skin condition among humans and animals that causes skin to lose its natural pigmentation. As vitiligo develops, it progressively destroys the melanocytes and causes the affected area to turn white or pink. A dog's fur covering the affected skin may also turn white, as in Bauer's case. Although he has a different appearance, Bauer refuses to let his condition get him down. From left: Bauer the Bernese Mountain dog is seen before losing his markings. From left: Bauer the Bernese Mountain dog is seen before losing his markings. @bauerthebmd / TikTok His owner, from Twin Cities, Minnesota, shared an adorable post on the dog's dedicated TikTok account (@bauerthebmd) showing the gradual progression of his vitiligo. The slideshow of images shows Bauer as a puppy with seemingly no signs of the condition. The next image shows him fully grown with minor white patches dotted around his face, which soon developed into a face covered in white fur. As the condition progressed, Bauer was left with a white face, white legs, and a trunk that is a mixture of black-and-white fur. By now, Bauer has lost almost all his pigmentation and is almost entirely white. Parts of his front legs still hold the rich brown color, but he has lost all of his usual markings. Indeed, his owner said that he's "not a Great Pyrenees," despite looking remarkably like one. Since the slideshow was shared online on May 13, it has gone viral with over 472,000 views and more than 64,000 likes on TikTok at the time of writing. There are two types of vitiligo: focal, which affects only one area; and generalized, which causes white patches across the body. The condition will usually spread to its full extent within three to six months of the first appearance, according to PetMD. From left: Bauer the Bernese mountain dog rests outdoors. From left: Bauer the Bernese mountain dog rests outdoors. @bauerthebmd / TikTok It is thought that most cases of vitiligo in pets are hereditary, PetMD suggests, but breeds at a higher risk of developing it include rottweilers, dachshunds, golden retrievers, Labradors, German shepherds, and German shorthaired pointers. Internet users can't get enough of Bauer's extraordinary appearance, which has led to almost 300 comments on the viral TikTok post. One comment reads: "Bro switched up, he's a Great Pyrenees now." Another TikTok user wrote: "Your Bernese identifies as a golden retriever." A third person posted: "He ran out of ink!" A fourth commenter added: "I've never seen vitiligo spread across the whole body before, so cool! He's a stunner!" Newsweek has contacted @bauerthebmd via TikTok for comment. We could not verify the details of the case. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share? We want to see the best ones!
