20 years ago Vivek was 17 years old. That's a young age to be president and chief legal officer.
Ramaswamy was one of the first investors in Theranos and served as the company's president and chief legal officer from 2003 to 2010.
Looks like rubbish.
In 2010 he was 24. Looks like made up stuff. I haven't even bothered checking as I don't care. Theranos type testing is a great idea because the current testing methods are horribly inefficient. Back in 1981 I was keen to get into blood testing of metals at nearly zero cost which was enabled by high temperature inductively coupled plasma spectrophotometers which I saw operating at my then company BP Oil International at Sunbury, London, England. Organic molecules were not so easy because computing power was in infancy. Computing power wasn't needed for metals and semi-metals.
Now, computing power should be able to provide ratios of organic molecules easily from a microdot blood sample. It couldn't give an accurate amount, but the ratios would be good enough for both metals and organic molecules.
For example, if a particular metal was excessive or inadequate the ratio with other metals would show that. A medical blood test could then be done to measure the actual level.
Similarly with organic molecules, though that would be more complex.
For example ratios of vitamin D, A, C, folic acid, E, etc could be measured with clever computing power sorting out what's there and how much of each.
