Just Take the Leap: Founding and Growing Nanopath with Co-Founders Amogha Tadimety and Alison Burklund

Building Biotechs

Today, I had the opportunity to speak with Amogha Tadimety, PhD, CEO, and Alison Burklund, PhD, President & CTO, co-founders of Nanopath, an innovative company specializing in women’s health diagnostics. Both hailing from Dartmouth’s Thayer School of Engineering, Amogha and Alison walk us through the challenges and opportunities of founding a diagnostic company during the COVID era. We chatted about the intricacies of bringing foundational technology to consumers, including the importance of navigating the insurance system and the specific focus of their technology on improving point-of-care diagnostics in women's health. They highlighted the need for innovative tools in OB-GYN practices, the strategic decisions that shaped Nanopath's direction, and the significant milestones they have achieved. They also emphasized the importance of building a strong team and network, overcoming healthcare system challenges, and their vision for the company's future, which includes creating a comprehensive well-woman panel and expanding the technology for broader applications.
