Every year, a handful of genuinely promising early-detection devices in medtech quietly disappear. Not because the science didn’t work. Because the program didn’t survive long enough to prove that it did. That distinction matters, because it is not how these stories usually get told. When an early-detection platform stalls, the assumption is almost always technical: […]

Insights from the MassMEDIC Webinar with Bryan Gilpin and Terri Kapur Every medtech leader I talk to is under pressure to move faster. That pressure is real, and it is not going away. But across the industry, we keep seeing the same thing play out: the harder organizations push for speed, the more they can […]

From smart devices to systems that learn AI in medtech has moved beyond experimentation. Today, it’s embedded across clinical workflows, driving real impact. But we’re seeing a clear shift in what success looks like next. In this perspective, we explore how the future is no longer about isolated intelligent devices. It’s about connected systems that […]

How workflow, IT integration, and reimbursement gaps stall promising devices—and what to do about it In 2011, when the early AI engine IBM Watson won a three-game exhibition tournament of Jeopardy, besting two human contestants who were widely considered to be the greatest ever to play the game, it was considered a real breakthrough for […]

In emergency medicine, minutes matter. But behind every “rapid response” clinical innovation is years of disciplined systems thinking, engineering rigor, and regulatory foresight. One of the most complex challenges facing trauma care today isn’t treatment, it’s access. Plasma, a critical component in emergency transfusions, has traditionally been constrained by freezing, storage, transport logistics, and slow […]

There’s no longer a debate about AI having an impact on healthcare. While we’re still in the early stages of the AI revolution, it’s now the rare clinician or patient who has not encountered an FDA-approved AI solution for some aspect of medical care, such as interpreting MRI images or analyzing electro-cardiograms. The problem is […]
