We Bridge the Gap and Build Bonds
Between larger communities that have access to lab diagnostics and the smaller underserved communities that deserve the same access. Our icon circles displayed in our logo represent the lives in large and small communities.
OUR HISTORY
It all began with the desire to find a lab diagnosis.
The founders of Molecular Testing Labs have worked together for over 30 years, with 10 years together as entrepreneurs. Many of our leaders came from Applied Materials (AMAT) during the tech boom and gained global experience in operating high-tech manufacturing. Their manufacturing background has played a critical role in the framework and function of the lab, with focus on quality control, high volume productivity, cost controls, and reproducible outcomes. Innovation is woven into the cultural fabric of the semiconductor industry. The founding partners have brought this same innovative drive to the healthcare space.
