Consulting

ViVitro Labs StaffViVitro’s experienced specialists are uniquely qualified to collaborate with you to ensure proficiency of testing methods that meet regulatory requirements for heart valve replacements and other cardiovascular devices. Our team will help you demonstrate regulatory compliance, aid your cardiovascular device development efforts, and help ensure manufacturing quality.

Director of Laboratory Services, Satya Karri PhD, has dedicated his career to understanding and demonstrating sound product development and manufacturing methods, quality systems, research skills and a thorough command of regulatory compliance issues.

Satya Karri, Ph.D. comes to ViVitro labs with extensive experience in cardiovascular research, and is equipped with a wealth of biomedical and mechanical engineering knowledge. After receiving a Masters in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Arlington and a Doctorate in Biomedical Engineering from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Satya spent five years as a graduate research assistant at the acclaimed AEThER – Advanced Experimental Thermofluid Engineering Research Lab in Blacksburg, Virginia. He later developed a state-of-the-art flow diagnostics laboratory at James Madison University as a Post Doctoral Research Associate.

Satya is well published in advanced fluid mechanics and finite element analysis of medical devices. A recognized authority in our industry, Satya’s expertise is rarely found outside the institutes of academia and represents a significant benefit to ViVitro Lab clients.

We have successfully assisted our clients in developing various solutions for testing requirements and regulatory submissions.

If you seek advice or a partnership for resolving complicated device testing or regulatory affairs issues, ViVitro is happy to provide you with reliable and immediate service. Our goal is not to work as a consultant but rather to provide immediate solutions to complicated problems, or where experience is vital, to drive progress.
