The first Onmark Vision advisory board meeting was a catalyst for progress. We discussed new therapies, tackled common challenges, and laid the groundwork for success. Together, we'll make a significant impact. I'm here to provide more details about this new exclusive GPO program for retina practices, so please let me know if you would like to learn more. #OnmarkVision

When joining a company, I truly believe in acting as an owner and founding team member, even if not one of the founders. So it's difficult to share that I'm moving on to explore new opportunities. Timing is apt with our first FDA approval at Q Bio received last week (congrats, team!) and major milestones towards our fully quantified MR scanner. A big thank you to all the Q Bionauts who have made these last 5.5 years a great journey. From growing into our San Carlos HQ (all that shiny new manufacturing space!) when were less than 10 people crammed into our Redwood City clinic at the start, to embracing more commercialization with our first big partnership underway, to getting the latest strategic funding, to the first whole-body SaMD approval from FDA..., we've weathered many ups/downs. Between a pandemic, bank runs, and floods on top of all the challenges in just building hard tech and a team and business around it, I think Q Bio's "Tell Us It's Impossible" values have lived up and continue to be our strength. So this is like leaving a child (a teenager?) behind that will hopefully grow up more independently!  This is not a goodbye as I expect to stay in touch as I root for you all from the sidelines. And yes, I also fully expect to get my fast whole-body scan very soon in the new Mark I! #digitaltwins #preventivecare #quantifiedMRI

Having difficulty figuring out how to encapsulate a 10 day trip. Quite a bit has happened. Guess it is best to follow the Sound of Music and start at the very beginning... LSI could not have been better. I do not say that lightly. Incredibly well run. One brilliant session after another, exceptional and innovative presentations and the collection of #medtech luminaries felt like a visit to the Hall of Fame. Throughout this week, would like to share a few of the insightful comments made by individuals up on the stage. The keynote on Wednesday the 20th stuck with me. This was my first opportunity to hear Bernard Zovighian speak. He was on stage with Paul LaViolette and between the two of them there was a vat of knowledge being shared with the audience. Bernard is now the CEO of Edwards Lifesciences. He explained the importance of change. The acceptance of knowing change is coming. The need to embrace the change. His description of falling in love with the original plan was well worded and resonated throughout the room. The line I liked most was: Change your plan. You will love the new one as much. I agree that is the difficulty. People feel that there is no way they could ever love a plan as much as their original. It is like your second child or second dog. Almost as if it is a betrayal to the first. The realization that you can love at the same level is critical to moving forward when circumstances require change. He explained about the level of patience it took to build the #TAVR program. How many times it failed and needed adjustment. An incredible story of perseverance. The result has been massive for patients. You know something affected you when the words keep surfacing. Changes the way I think.

This is the definition I use for Formula Trauma. I got the idea from Formula One racing in which the teams are given a "Formula" or strict specifications for the cars. The specifications paradoxically enable innovation in the areas that areas not specified. We have analogous constraints in healthcare: Pathophysiology, the disease process, cost that are not under our control but we should recognize the areas where we can innovate. Do you have any examples where you have innovated? What were the steps that enable you to make that happen? Please share your stories.
