Why We Built Upstreamed

Riley Konara, MD

TRIPLE-BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN

Co-Founder, Upstreamed Inc.

U.S. ARMY VETERAN

Hello, I’m Riley!

I get it - the system is broken.

As an Army doctor on the frontlines during COVID, I witnessed how delays, gatekeepers, and endless red tape hurt progress — often when lives were on the line. It was exhausting and unacceptable.

Even now, as a practicing physician, I face the same frustrations: getting ideas noticed, navigating outdated systems, and watching opportunities slip away due to inefficiencies.

That’s why I co-founded Upstreamed. I wanted to create a platform that truly works for clinicians and researchers — because I’ve lived the challenges you face every day.

Upstreamed removes the barriers to publishing and collaboration, so your ideas get the attention they deserve, and your work can make the impact it’s meant to.

We’ve built Upstreamed for people like us — because the system is broken, but together, we can fix it.
