Founders

Hao Zheng
Founder

I graduated with double majors in Mathematics and Chemistry (Honor program) from University of California, San Diego. Then, I went onto the Johns Hopkins University to do a master in Bioinformatics but dropped out midway to work on starting a company instead. While going to school, I involved myself in liver, head and neck research, authoring eight peer-reviewed publications, with five as the first author. On a personal level, I really love Math and the universality of human connections.
