Testimonials

As we worked through the project, it was not only an engineering firm developing an instrument, but it was a consultancy, as well, that allowed us to do it properly to make sure that the CLIA-certified laboratory was happy with the LDT that was developed at the lab.

We also envision the use of these instruments going through 510(k) approval to be sold to external laboratories, academic institutions, or large GI practices, so they can use them outside of our CLIA lab post-510(k).

And we know that StarFish has the capabilities to help us through that journey.

Encouraging a company to go down a development path that is realistic from a design, regulatory, and indication for use perspective is really important. StarFish Medical identified major risks in developing the medical device and made sure we tackled those first. They understand small details which go into developing a medical device that a first time research team wouldn’t consider.

Working with StarFish provided us access to lots of talented engineers—electrical, biomedical, mechanical, and software—and structured project management. Our microbiome sampling project and prototype had been going on for 4 years. We handed the project to StarFish and have made great progress since.

They took a very methodical approach based on determining indication for use that helped us identify new peripherals, add functionality and enable manufacturability.
