Medsider Radio: Learn From Proven Medtech And Healthcare Experts

In this episode of Medsider Radio, we had a great chat with Rafaël Michali and Renato Circi, co-founders of SAVA, a London-based biotechnology startup developing a novel biosensing platform to monitor molecules just below the skin in real time.Rafaël and Renato are biomedical engineers from Imperial College London. Both recognized in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list as some of Europe’s most promising young innovators in 2018, the duo raised $13M in funding and built a cross-functional team of now over 40 to develop a next-generation biosensing platform.
