Approximately 2.2 billion people worldwide suffer from vision impairment or blindness, and out of these, at least 1 billion have vision problems that could have been prevented or have yet to be addressed.

(WHO, 2023) I am joined on this week’s episode with Shivang Dave, CEO and Founder of PlenOptika. Their mission is to advance eye health by innovating optical technology, addressing the bottleneck in vision care through fast and accurate refraction at scale. We discuss the challenges of being a founder in health tech, including the time it takes to develop products, the importance of clinical validation, and the impact of their device in addressing vision problems for millions of people.

E024: Carlos Castro Gonzales: Innovation in Cancer Therapy

Typically, 67% of cancer patients live for 5 or more years after diagnosis (Cancer.Net, 2021). During these years, it is common for their white blood cell count (WBC) to be lower due to the cancer and/ or medication they are being treated with. This can lead to lower quality of life as they are at higher risk of infection. (Mayo Clinic, 2022) In cancer treatment, infections come second as a major cause of death. About 60% of deaths among cancer patients are connected to infections. (American Society of Clinical Oncology, 2019) Carlos Castro Gonzales, founder of Leuko, is on a mission to improve the quality of life and outcomes for chemotherapy patients, through a light-based medical technology that counts white blood cells. In this episode, we talk about his journey building Leuko.

E023: Pierre Cantegril | Mona Ciotta | Lucas Paes de Melo: Communicating Value in Healthcare

Did you know that nearly two-thirds of patients are dissatisfied with their healthcare experiences? Even more concerning is the fact that 34% of these individuals admit to feeling inadequately informed about their personal health conditions (Heath/ PEH, 2021) This is an issue that warrants immediate attention. Back in 2017, the World Health Organisation underlined the significance of refining communication strategies across all stakeholders within the healthcare community (WHO,2017). In this week's episode of Health Creators, we are joined by esteemed guests: Pierre, co-founder of HelloBetter; Mona, co-founder of medudoc; and Lucas, the founder of Alivio. Together, they talk about their journeys of establishing very successful startups, where creating effective patient communication is key.

E022: Paul Hammer: The Microbiome Fingerprint

People have diverse microbial compositions that vary widely. It's unclear how these variations, both within an individual over time and between different individuals, impact health, disease onset, and progression. However, it's evident that shifts in the microbiome and its metabolites, and their interactions with the immune, endocrine, and nervous systems, are linked to numerous illnesses, including inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, and major depressive disorder. (Glibert et al., 2018). Dr. Paul Hammer, CEO & Founder of Biomes, is on a mission to help people live healthier lives. In this episode, we discuss the Microbiome fingerprint and how we can leverage microbiome genomics to improve health outcomes. #ceo #podcast #clinicalresearch #Genomics #Microbiome #guthealth #PersonalizedMedicine Follow: Twitter: https://twitter.com/livialifes Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/livialifes About Me: Neuroute - copilot for clinical trials https://www.neuroute.co

E021: Gadolf Finke: The Power of Psychology in Cancer Care

Depression and anxiety affect up to 20% and 10% of patients with cancer respectively (Pitman et. al, 2018). And even after remission, it is estimated that a third of recovered cancer patients suffer from a mental health disorder (Geue et. al, 2018). Although mental health is often a forgotten factor, recent studies have demonstrated the impact of mental health in cancer outcomes. Gandolf Finke, founder of MIKA, is on a mission to empower everyone affected by cancer. In this episode, we dive into the intricacies of building a DTx in cancer, the power of positive psychology and Gandolf’s journey growing MIKA. #ceo #podcast #clinicalresearch #dtx #mentalhealth #cancer Follow: Twitter: https://twitter.com/livialifes Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/livialifes About Me: Neuroute - copilot for clinical trials https://www.neuroute.co
