MENLO PARK, Calif., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MyOme, a leading genomics innovation and risk modeling company, today announced the appointment of Sam Roosz and Dr. Ravi Thadhani to its Board of Directors. The two executives bring deep expertise spanning healthcare technology, data portability, clinical trials, population health, and regulatory strategy — strengthening MyOme’s position as it expands its AI-powered whole-genome healthcare platform.

Sam Roosz is Co-Founder and CEO of Crescendo Health, where he is building a patient-centered platform that enables individuals to securely contribute their complete health history to medical research, and was previously Co-Founder of Datavant, where he helped build the nation’s largest health data ecosystem — enabling secure data linkage across providers, researchers, and public agencies. His track record in enterprise partnerships and high-growth execution will guide MyOme as it scales whole-genome solutions across health systems, life sciences, employers, and population health networks.

“MyOme is unlocking the clinical value of the whole genome and multianalyte analysis in a way that is actionable for patients and providers. Delivering integrated, validated genomic insights at population scale has the potential to fundamentally reshape how healthcare is delivered. I’m excited to support the company’s next phase of growth.” – Sam Roosz

Dr. Ravi Thadhani, Executive Vice President of Clinical Affairs and Chief Medical Officer at Cedars-Sinai, is a nationally recognized leader with more than 30 years of experience spanning academic medicine, clinical operations, and regulatory strategy. He has held senior leadership roles at Emory University, Harvard Medical School and Mass General Brigham, and brings extensive firsthand experience on data safety monitoring and guiding diagnostics through FDA approval pathways — directly aligned with MyOme’s evidence-building and commercialization strategy.

“Whole-genome–powered insights represent one of the most meaningful opportunities to transform how disease is understood, diagnosed, and managed. MyOme’s integrated approach — combining monogenic and polygenic insights with strong clinical evidence and regulatory rigor — positions the company to drive significant impact across the healthcare system.”- Dr. Thadhani

Matt Rabinowitz, PhD, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of MyOme, emphasized the importance of the newly appointed board members. “Sam has scaled influential health-data platforms, and Ravi has led major clinical organizations while guiding innovative diagnostics through FDA pathways. Their combined expertise will be invaluable as whole-genome and multiomic intelligence becomes foundational to modern medicine.”

MyOme’s whole-genome platform uses advanced AI and integrated risk modeling to deliver actionable genomic insights across clinical care and research applications — spanning cardiometabolic, liver, kidney, cognitive disease, oncology, rare conditions, pharmacogenomics and beyond.
