////////////////////////////
Our resolve to bring about change was born from the urgency to bring snakebite care into the 21st century. Snakebite envenoming remains one of the world's most neglected tropical diseases, affecting millions annually and claiming over 100,000 lives.
By developing affordable technologies that can support clinical decision-making, we're committed to making snakebite care more accessible, efficient, and life-saving.
