About Aluna
Like many great adventures, Aluna started out as a mission among friends. After Charvi Shetty took a course in Biodesign during her senior year at UC Berkeley, she recruited Inderjit Jutla, a friend she knew could help turn her research into a state of the art portable tool for pediatric respiratory management.
From the beginning, Charvi and Inderjit made a conscious choice to focus on kids. Children make up only a quarter of the total asthma population yet they account for almost half of the asthma emergencies and hospitalizations. Indy suffered from asthma when he was younger, so the two understood that respiratory diseases carry a level of uncertainty and fear that can be crippling. It was clear that gathering critical data daily and relaying it in real time could greatly improve quality of life, not just for kids but also for anxious parents and the healthcare providers who might only see patients during routine checkups or dire emergencies.
