Our CEO and founder Erika, and her business partner, Rob, are just two of more than 1.62 billion people worldwide who struggle with anemia, the most common blood disorder.
Their personal battles inspired them to develop affordable and accessible products for regular anemia screening, so people like them could be proactive about their health.
Erika Tyburski, then-Georgia Tech student, partnered with Dr. Wilbur Lam on a senior design project on instant anemia screening. It’s there she met Rob Mannino.
In this year, Erika and Rob launch the first AnemoCheck test prototype, win second place at the Georgia Tech Inventure Prize contest, first at the Georgia Tech Ideas to Serve, and secure their first grant.
AnemoCheck is written about in The Journal of Clinical Investigation, and Sanguina officially becomes a company.
The Food and Drug Administration cleared first-generation AnemoCheck for clinical use.
AnemoCheck/AnemoCheck Home technology is granted a utility/method patent in the U.S., Europe, and Japan.
Sanguina secures $2.3 million in seed funding.
