My name is Nanda Siddhardha, and I am pursuing my Master’s in Biomedical Engineering at Ivy League College Columbia University. This journey is more than a personal milestone — it is the continuation of my late father Nanda Prasada Rao Garu’s legacy of service. Many knew him as the personal secretary to Brahmarshi Patriji and the first Managing Director of Pyramid Meditation Channel (PMC). His life was dedicated to uplifting communities and sharing wisdom.
Inspired by his vision, I chose a different but connected path — service through science. My passion lies in building affordable healthcare solutions so that no one is denied treatment because of cost.
My Contributions So Far
Built low-cost IoT patient monitoring systems
Designed open-source biomedical devices for underserved regions
Developed AI models for early disease detection
Published 100+ technical papers and secured a UK patent for diagnostic innovation
But to continue this mission, I need your support.
Financial Need
The cost of completing my education at Columbia is ~$180,000 (₹1.5 Cr).
✅ I have managed my first semester through family, community, and loans.
❗ I still need $85,000 to finish the program (tuition, living expenses, and academic resources).
Why Your Support Matters
Your contribution is not just helping one student — it is fueling a mission to make healthcare smarter, more accessible, and life-saving for those who cannot afford it. With your support, I promise to pay it forward through mentorship, innovation, and service to others.
✨ Free Mentorship Sessions
