NEW YORK, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Lindus Health, the “anti-CRO” running radically faster, more reliable clinical trials for life science pioneers, has launched an all-encompassing contract research organization (CRO) unique to consumer health companies seeking clinical validation for their products.

To date, Lindus Health has conducted numerous end-to-end trials in consumer health and wellness, enrolling patients across the US, UK, and Europe for a variety of products including topical creams, prebiotics and probiotics, weight loss supplements, digital health interventions, over-the-counter medications, and more. Lindus Health is set to enhance consumer health trials with the release of their “All-in-One Consumer Health CRO”, capitalizing on their expertise in the development of health and wellness products.

Lindus Health’s new offering merges expert CRO services and vast experience in consumer health clinical trials with a database of over 30 million electronic health records (EHRs) and their proprietary eClinical platform, Citrus™. This comprehensive solution provides companies developing health and wellness products with all the tools they need to conduct their research in one place.

Clinical trials for consumer health products must be proven to be effective among the general population, rather than just individuals with a specific medical diagnosis. Lindus Health’s offering equips sponsors to enroll diverse participant populations through a variety of tactics, including targeted social media recruitment campaigns, collaborations with primary care, EHR screening, virtual and hybrid site models, and more. The company’s robust recruitment capabilities allow them to enroll participants in consumer health trials two times faster on average.

“People are prioritizing health and wellness today more than ever before and want to ensure the products they use in their everyday lives are safe and effective,” said Lindus Health co-founder, Meri Beckwith. “The launch of our ‘All-in-One Consumer Health CRO’ offering provides consumer health companies with a streamlined, cost-effective approach to obtain clinical validation and support health claims.”

The “All-in-One Consumer Health CRO” solution provides consumer health companies with a comprehensive suite of features:

CRO and traditional study management services: Lindus Health’s clinical operations team leverages their extensive expertise in health and wellness research through trial end-to-end execution, from study startup through close-out.Strategies for large-scale recruitment: With the ability to readily screen over 30 million EHRs and deploy multi-channel advertising campaigns, Lindus Health can reach a larger pool of study candidates to accelerate recruitment timelines.Customizable eClinical software, Citrus™: Lindus Health’s home-grown trial management platform, integrates essential trial execution technologies like the Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS), Electronic Data Capture (EDC), eConsent, and patient scheduling, all customized to fit each study’s needs.Deep regulatory and industry expertise: Bringing together various research backgrounds, the Lindus Health team resumes exceptional knowledge of the requirements of different types of consumer health studies and stays current with industry trends.Exceptional site operations solutions: With strong partnerships with principal investigators (PIs) and research staff, Lindus Health’s site management team efficiently conducts trials in various settings—single-site, multi-site, remote/hybrid, and traditional—using their extensive primary and specialty care network to meet study requirements.

“We’ve had the privilege of collaborating with Lindus Health, and their team’s attentiveness and dedication have been beyond our expectations,” said CEO Thomas Gurry, Co-Founder and CEO of Myota, a health tech start-up that aims to improve well-being and prevent chronic diseases. “Their passion is evident in every aspect of their work, from meticulous study planning to execution.”

The “All-in-One Consumer Health CRO” is backed by the support of a stellar advisory board that includes Bob Langer, co-founder at Moderna and institute professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), as well as Alessandro Falcone, Executive Director of Breast Cancer Oncology R&D Strategy at AstraZeneca.

Lindus Health is dedicated to delivering exceptional clinical trial experiences to both consumer health companies and the participants they enroll, providing guidance and flexibility throughout all study stages to aid in the development of safe and effective health and wellness products.

April 19, 2026

LAS VEGAS, April 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Insta360, a global leader in innovative imaging technology, today opened its showcase at the 2026 NAB Show, unveiling a range of new products, bundles, and software updates, including a preview of an all-new product line.

New Additions to the Insta360 Lineup

Members of the media and NAB attendees were among the first globally to preview the upcoming Insta360 Luna Series, co-engineered with Leica, which includes Luna Pro and Luna Ultra. The series features a large 1-inch sensor, a bright F1.8 aperture, a variable focal length, and support for 10-bit color for smoother, more natural transitions in light and shadow, capturing more nuanced and detailed color straight from the camera. Luna Pro features a single-lens design, while Luna Ultra features a dual-lens design and enhanced telephoto performance.

Luna Ultra and Luna Pro were both being teased at the booth, and will be available in two distinct color options.

GO Ultra Tadej Pogačar Edition Bundle

Also on display was the Insta360 GO Ultra Tadej Pogačar Edition Bundle, released April 15. GO Ultra is the company’s latest compact, hands-free action camera, designed to deliver smooth, professional POV footage in any scenario.

Developed in collaboration with Tadej Pogačar, reigning Tour de France champion, this co-branded edition offers an immersive POV solution that captures the intensity and perspective of elite cycling.

“Cycling is about pushing limits and taking on challenges. With Insta360, I can share our sport’s passion and excitement. I hope this inspires cyclists to capture their own journeys and memories,” said Pogačar.

Previewed at NAB, Launching Soon

In addition to newer products already available, Insta360 showcased several upcoming innovations at NAB Show 2026, offering attendees an early look at what’s next.

The company previewed a new wireless microphone, Insta360 Mic Pro, built around a more integrated approach to audio in modern workflows. Designed to fit seamlessly into how creators shoot and move, it features a Customizable E-Ink Display that allows logos, names, or visual elements to be added, making the microphone part of the frame rather than something to hide. Through Insta360 Direct Connect, the system integrates directly with Insta360 cameras, reducing setup friction and removing the need for additional devices in fast-paced scenarios. A three-microphone array, combined with AI-powered processing and NPU-based noise reduction, helps maintain consistent audio clarity across changing environments, while internal recording provides an added layer of reliability when conditions are less controlled.

Additionally, the Insta360 GO 3S Retro Bundle was introduced, bringing a film inspired aesthetic to the compact POV camera. The bundle includes a Retro Viewfinder, stylized filters, and tactile accessories reminiscent of classic cameras, while maintaining the portability and functionality that defines GO 3S.

An upcoming major update to Flow 2 and Flow 2 Pro was also showcased, enhancing Insta360’s pocket AI filmmaker lineup for both iPhone and Android users. Key improvements include native multi-lens support for flagship Android devices such as the Samsung S26 Ultra, faster 360 panorama capture, Dual View Mode, and Apple Watch control on iPhone. These updates expand access to hands free, cinematic stabilized shooting across platforms.

Compared to traditional environmental noise cancellation that only handles ambient sounds, it identifies and separates noise in real-time to keep voice clear and stable within team communication, even when multiple crews speak at once in a complex environment.
