It's a shame Theranos poisoned the well so badly. There's a lot of good work to be done in the space. But that kind of science just cannot be done by hyper-secretive overfunded outsiders. For the good of us all, try not to let Theranos drag down an entire kind of company - but in that, be critical of science, credentials, and data.
And though science is still hard, signals from the NSF, QB3, Berkeley, UCSF, MIT and Cornell all point towards a much different culture and kind of company than was to be found in Theranos.
