Aakaash Meduri joins Elektra Labs

We’re pleased to announce that Aakaash Meduri has joined Elektra Labs.

Aakaash is joining our Digital Medicine team to support the growth of the Atlas platform. Prior to joining Elektra, Aakaash founded Rhythm Health, and we’re thrilled to bring his entrepreneurial spirit to our team. Given his background working with wearables in the clinical trial environment, Aakaash quickly dove in with our team to restructure and build new models to ensure that the study teams working on decentralized clinical trials can successfully deploy remote monitoring, which has been mission critical during the COVID-19 pandemic to allow studies to continue to run safely and effectively.

Prior to founding Rhythm Health, Aakaash was at AbbVie, where he worked in a variety of roles within Clinical Standards & Compliance, Study Project Management and Data & Statistical Sciences. During his tenure at AbbVie, Aakaash developed a deep interest in leveraging digital health to better understand patients. He also completed Y Combinator’s Startup School program shortly afterwards, which grew his interest in the startup world.

Outside of work, Aakaash is an avid chess player and has earned the title of National Master. He enjoys streaming on Twitch to riff on how chess relates to life. Besides chess, Aakaash likes to sharpen his mind through a combination of meditation, weightlifting, reading and writing.

Please join me in welcoming Aakaash to our team!
