Bala RajaFounder/CEO
Between 2014 and 2023, Bala was CEO and co-founder of Clip Health, a YC, Khosla Ventures, and NIH-backed startup that built products for rapid health testing. Clip Health raised $54M and launched a 30-min COVID-19 test distributed to customers including doctor's offices, drive-through clinics, and employers in 21 U.S. states in 2021-22 but failed to parlay their covid successes into sustainable growth and shut down in August 2023. Bala holds a PhD in engineering from the University of Houston.
Andrew PatersonFounder/CTO
I'm a scientist and engineer at heart. I love any and all things science from fundamental physics to chemistry and materials science to biology. My passion in life is to help drive scientific and technological progress by shepherding innovative technologies based on hard science and engineering out of the R&D lab and onto the commercial marketplace. I have 12+ years of experience working at the intersection of biology, chemistry, nanotech, hardware, and software.
