About Modular Medical, Inc.
Modular Medical, Inc. (OTCQB: MODD) is a development-stage, insulin delivery company. The Company's founder, CEO and lead stockholder is Paul DiPerna, who was the previous founder and chief technical officer of Tandem Diabetes Care. Mr. DiPerna's vision is that the leading insulin pump companies are too focused on "superusers," people with diabetes with the time, motivation and resources to utilize complex, expensive products. As a result, these entities have largely neglected the approximately one million people in the United States who still rely on daily injections for treatment. Modular seeks to expand the insulin delivery marketplace to these underserved patients, so they can benefit from Modular's advanced technology to assist in their care. The Company is based in San Diego, CA. More information is available at www.modular-medical.com.
