We chat with Dr. Sudha Rao, an entrepreneur and researcher who’s been shaping the genomics landscape in India for over two decades. As the co-founder of Genotypic Technology and the founder of Dhiti Omics Technology Pvt Ltd, Dr. Sudha has been instrumental in bringing genomic services to India, setting up world-class facilities in molecular biology, microarray, and next-gen sequencing.
But what does it really take to build something like this from the ground up?
We dig into the journey of starting one of India’s first genomic service labs and the many hurdles they had to overcome. We talk about how genomics went from a niche field to an essential part of the healthcare system in India and what it took to make that happen - think technology breakthroughs, collaborations, and some serious perseverance.
We also talk about where genomics is headed. Dr. Sudha shares her vision for the future and a bold prediction for the next decade that could change everything.
It’s a conversation full of insights and big ideas. Grab a coffee and join us for a peek into the future of healthcare in India and beyond.
