It takes 17 years to go from research finding to patient impact. This translational gap is too long for patients who need better diagnoses and treatments today.
I am focused along with my colleagues at BioSci Consulting on narrowing this gap which is both figuratively and literally a valley of death.
I bring a unique perspective on the future of medicine and the future of how we should work together in a distributed manner.
Having moved to Europe 16 years ago I found myself unable to continue my work as a physician and a researcher. Instead, I got engaged in putting together large-scale collaborations for projects that were attempting to achieve major shifts in how we approach the diagnosis and management of disease. Through the past 15 years I have designed more than 60 collaborative projects and spent over 15,000 hours facilitating dialogue in mostly online meetings.
I developed a passion for finding ways to get the most creative output from diverse groups to solve problems and develop new projects. I have written a book Assembled Chaos which focused on how to create and get value out of multi-partner collaborations (consortia) by increasing the interaction amongst participants.
I also host a podcast Beyond Publications which is aimed at learning the secrets of leaders in life science and healthcare with the goal of increasing the number of people who take a leadership role in driving forward healthcare innovation.
