What is theranos board member?

Theranos was a Silicon Valley startup founded in 2003 by Elizabeth Holmes, who claimed to have created a revolutionary portable blood-testing technology that could perform a range of medical tests using only a few drops of blood from a finger prick. The company's board included several high-profile individuals, such as former Secretary of State George Shultz, former secretary of defense William Perry, and former senator Sam Nunn. The board was also criticized for its lack of expertise in clinical chemistry and medical testing, with the majority of members coming from political and business backgrounds rather than scientific or medical fields. In 2015, allegations emerged that the company's technology did not work as advertised, leading to investigations by federal agencies and the eventual downfall of the company. Several board members, including Shultz, Perry, and Nunn, came under scrutiny for their roles in promoting the technology and their lack of oversight.
