A MacArthur Genius Grant recipient and MIT-trained engineer, Saul brings decades of deep-tech invention and entrepreneurship to the mission of transforming infection control.

Before founding

Saul earned his PhD from MIT in 2004 and went on to found over a dozen technology companies in Silicon Valley, including Otherlab, an independent R&D lab serving government agencies and Fortune 500 companies. He also founded Rewiring America, a nonprofit dedicated to electrification and decarbonization as a path to fighting climate change.

Carecubes closed a $6.5 million Series A round backed by leaders from Oscar Health, Aetna, Cardinal Health, and Medtronic, and has seen its units deployed in 36 communities across 13 states and territories.
