Ugh, is every medical startup with female founders going to fall into this "Theranos" semantic frame now, with all the crappy assumptions about viability and research integrity that entails?
- makomk 11y agoA medical startup with a female founder that claims to be able to replace standard blood tests with a less invasive solution, accompanied by overly credible media coverage that claims the only reason the medical industry isn't doing it already is its own incompetence and fails to mention the fact that the fluid they're collecting is actually rather different from normal venous blood and likely isn't suitable as a substitute for it? Sounds a lot like Theranos to me.
