We talk to Jani Tuomi, co-founder of Imaware, the first ever home celiac blood tests. One test is given if you suspect that you have celiac and another (that Mike and Cam took) is for follow up testing to ensure that you are not getting cross contamination. Imaware assembled an impressive team including Dr. Guandalini and Dr. Schuppan to make sure that they were focusing on the most important details and metrics. We talk to Jani about the overall vision for Imaware and how they are helping to blaze and new trail, allowing patients to take a more active role in managing their health care.  Mike and Cam also share the results of their recent Imaware blood test.
