Jennifer Curtin, MD
Chief Medical Officer and Cofounder
Dr. Curtin is a physician and post-viral illness expert specializing in myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) and its comorbidities. She is a member of the ME/CFS Clinician Coalition and co-authored the official clinical guidance for ME/CFS. Dr. Curtin has a personal understanding of the difficulties Long COVID patients experience as she is a mostly recovered ME/CFS patient herself. She understands the urgency that is necessary to understand Long COVID and bring her clinical expertise to the millions of patients currently seeking help.

Ryan Kellogg, PhD
Chief Executive Officer and Cofounder
Dr. Kellogg’s experience with complex illness led him to pioneer technology for molecular profiling using self-collected blood microsamples as a scientist at Stanford University. This allows for a better understanding of health fluctuations and the impacts of health interventions. When combined with wearable sensors and symptom tracking, this technology allows for real-time health monitoring and pattern discovery with unprecedented resolution.

Michael Snyder, PhD
Cofounder and Chair of Scientific Advisory Board
Dr. Snyder is the head of Stanford’s Healthcare Innovation Lab, co-founder of multiple companies, and a pioneer in the use of wearable devices and app-collected data to understand, detect, and even predict changes in general health and disease. This technology allowed him to predict, detect, and correct his own post-viral diabetes. It is this wearable technology and health-tracking capabilities that play a key role in the treatment process here at RTHM.
