Company Overview

Our Mission:

To empower clinicians, astronauts, national security, and communities with the best and innovative technology. This is done through interdisciplinary integration of science, biology, and all fields of engineering to create transformative solutions.

Our Vision:

A future in which innovation follow the person, not the patient; where health and security is continuously observable, wherever one is — from homes to remote clinics to space stations, DMI strives to be the catalyst that transforms how people access and act upon critical data.

Our Identity

DNA Medicine Institute is a leading med-tech incubator and biomedical technology innovator founded in 2004. We combine deep scientific expertise with cutting-edge engineering to create systems that transcend conventional boundaries. For instance, this includes enabling health insights from a single drop of blood, whether on Earth or in space. At DMI, innovation isn’t just an aspiration—it’s our core identity.

What We Do (Our Capabilities)

  • rHEALTH Platform Development: Our flagship diagnostic technology compresses dozens of lab assays into a handheld device, validated in microgravity, clinical settings, and austere environments.

  • Biomedical R&D & Validation: Rigorous testing through NASA, Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), clinical testing result in technologies that are ready for demanding real-world deployment and applications.

  • Productization & Translation: We move beyond prototypes—spinning off market-ready solutions and collaborating with partner organizations to bring technologies into real-world use.

  • Spin-outs, Investments & Commercial Partnerships: We incubate, license, and co-develop technologies with mission-aligned organizations to maximize reach and impact.

Our Track Record & Recognition

  • NASA & Space Missions: rHEALTH ONE’s successful deployment on the ISS validates our performance in zero gravity.

  • Reduced-Gravity Testing: Our devices have consistently operated under zero-G, lunar, and hyper-gravity (1.8 G) conditions in parabolic flight experiments.

  • SBIR & NIH Awards: Multiple grants and funding rounds supporting critical care, space diagnostics, and point-of-care innovations.

  • XPRIZE & Other Competitions: Finalist in XPRIZE challenges, recognized for excellence in diagnostics innovation and sensing technologies.

  • Multiple Agency Track Record: Successful completion of high-profile projects with NASA, NIH, BARDA, and USAF as a prime contractor mean that we have full capabilities to manage and deliver on high-profile projects.

  • Developed and validated hardware and software under extreme environments (space, defense, clinical, field)

  • Our team includes dedicated individuals that span multiple engineering and scientific discliplines.

  • Translated lab research into certified technologies

  • Led successful partnerships in academic, governmental, and commercial sectors

  • Managed complex programs that deliver high performance innovations to extreme environments.
