  I read that Gibbons maintained the technology could work up until his "suicide". Even if it was flawed the truly sad thing is this will deter research into similar tech for decades.

  >Yet in Silicon Valley, many believe that Theranos - far from being an aberration - speaks of systemic problems with start-up culture. My understanding is that most in silicon valley don't claim theranos as being a "silicon valley startup" (usually asking: which silicon valley VCs funded them?)
