Why BlinkLab
Working with a very motivated young team. Trying to actually create tools that make a difference in a child's neurdevelopmental journey opposed to the academic objective of just focussing on "better understanding" with improvements being a result of that in the later future.
My Role
I joined BlinkLab in Dec 2024 because it allows me to use my broad scientific and clinical experience in a purposeful way. I am Chief Medical Officer and my day-to-day tasks are study design, making sure studies in BL are done in a meaningful scientific way as well as making sure all study procedures are conducted in a sound way from a regulatory standpoint.
