The rise, fall, and pivot of Theranos, in one graphic

It's been a roller coaster year for Theranos, a startup once heralded as a revolutionary blood-testing company.

On October 10, one of the company's major investors filed a lawsuit against the company (which Theranos vigorously contested). And before that, on October 5, Theranos decided to get out of the clinical lab business, cutting 340 positions and closing all of its Wellness Centers.
