发帖数: 10208 | 1 Dr. Matthew Rabinowitz has had dual careers in industry and academia. He
completed his B.A., M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees at Stanford University,
receiving both the Levin and Terman Awards — the highest academic honors
offered respectively in engineering and physics — and a graduate fellowship
to the school of engineering. While completing his dissertation, Dr.
Rabinowitz co-founded an intelligent online merchandizing company, Panop.com
, which later sold for $100M. Shortly after, Dr. Rabinowitz started his
second company, Rosum, which developed a location technology using TV
signals to augment GPS. Rosum received the World Economic Forum “100
Technology Pioneers” award when he was CTO.
In 2003, Dr. Rabinowitz’s life took a turn. A family member had a child
born with a genetic disease and the child died. Dr. Rabinowitz experienced
firsthand the trauma, stress, and devastation that an unexpected diagnosis
of genetic disease can bring to a family and he was moved to action.
Drawing on expertise from his seemingly unrelated background, Dr. Rabinowitz
embarked on a journey with the goal of ensuring that other families need
not experience similar pain wrought by the inability to have a healthy child
. Bringing together a team of experts in medicine, engineering, statistics,
and genetics, along with his own skills in optimization, signal processing,
informatics, and entrepreneurship – Natera was born.
Dr. Rabinowitz is now an authority in the field of prenatal and
preconception informatics-based genetic testing. He has served as the
Principal Investigator on six research grants awarded by the National
Institutes of Health from which multiple publications have emerged in the
leading journals of the field such as Bioinformatics, Human Reproduction,
and Molecular Human Reproduction. He actively presents at medical
conferences around the world, including at the annual meeting of the
American College of Medical Genetics, American Society of Reproductive
Medicine, and Fetal Medicine Foundation World Congress.
Dr Rabinowitz is a board member, advisor, and angel investor for multiple
technology companies in the fields of biotech, communications, cleantech and
healthcare. He has received the Scott Helt Memorial Award from IEEE and was
selected by MIT Technology Review Magazine as one of the top 35 technology
innovators under 35 in the US.
Natera’s results have been no less than remarkable. Dr. Rabinowitz and the
entire Natera team share a dedicated passion to bringing the breakthrough
Parental Support technology to those who need it most in their pursuit of a
healthy family. | d**i
