About Us
BLUIM was founded by Pratip K. Chattopadhyay, Ph.D.
Pratip is a proud graduate of the University of Virginia (B.A., Biology) and the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, where he earned a Ph.D. in Molecular Microbiology and Immunology. He worked at the National Institutes of Health, before he founded the Precision Immunology Laboratory at NYU as an Associate Professor. More recently, he founded two companies focused on generating and interpreting data for cutting-edge studies of the immune system.
"I've spent my career trying to answer a basic question. It's one I asked myself 30 years ago, first as a cancer patient, then as a cancer survivor. How could I better predict and prepare for what my disease, treatment, or recovery might bring? Thanks in part to my contributions as a scientist, that question can be addressed for new drugs and treatments in infectious disease, autoimmunity, and cancer.
"But cutting-edge tests and smart, multi-faceted, holistic thinking shouldn't be reserved for big pharma studies. The tech used to evaluate new drugs can, and should be, used to help each of us - all of us - navigate our personal health journeys.
"BLUIM runs on three principles - first, that our genetics - measured in a modern multi-gene way - provide a blueprint for our disease risk and health. Second, our immune system is the body's own, highly sensitive alarm system for changes in our health; measures of the immune system can tell us about current inflammation. Third, past health issues leave a mark on our immune system, and when those imprints are measured they reveal how our immune system has aged. Each of these principles leads to actionable insights people can take to improve their health."
About You
Your health journey might be a pretty barren path,
with little or no data addressing your wellness goals.
You want tmore than a watch or a ring can tell you,
and doctors' tests are mostly built for people who are really sick.
You don't want trendy, social media tests. You value credibility. You want informative, in-depth tests, supported by scientific evidence.
We're here to add context and color to your wellness journey. Because you deserve it.
