Julian’s invention, EVA, is a game changer in this regard.
The “auto-exploration bra” is designed to be worn for one hour, once a week. While on the body, EVA’s 200 sensors map the surface of the wearer’s breast in search of things like: texture, temperature, body flow and color. Just like a fitbit or smart watch, EVA uses bluetooth to send the collected data to a computer or app for evaluation. The auto-exploration bra does the science, while the wearer is easily able to see what changes have happened in their breasts.

The 17-year-old is so confident in the need for his product, he even launched his own company—Higia Technologies—which aims to “boost women’s quality of life by attaining a professionalization of the self exploration method for the early and effective detection of breast cancer.”
Julian’s hope is that EVA would lead to better, more attainable early detection in every woman.
All the praise for this go-get-it teen who’s taking the horrible cards his mom was dealt, and turning them into aces for the now-generation.
