About us
Valo Health is a technology company that integrates human-centric data and AI-powered technology to accelerate the creation of life-changing drugs. Valo was created with the belief that the drug discovery and development process can and should be faster and less expensive, with a higher success rate. We use models early to fail less often as we reinvent drug discovery and development from the ground up. Disease doesn’t wait, so neither can we.
We are a multi-disciplinary team of experts in science, technology, and pharmaceuticals united in our mission to achieve better drugs for patients, faster. Valo is committed to hiring diverse talent, prioritizing growth and development, fostering an inclusive environment, and bringing together a group of different experiences, backgrounds, and voices to work together. We achieve the widest-ranging impact when we leverage our broad backgrounds and perspectives.
Valo’s machine learning and AI capabilities are built on high-quality, high-density translational biology data from multiple sources: that’s where you come in!
