Medsider Radio: Learn from Medical Device and Medtech Thought Leaders
In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Kate Dilligan, CEO of Cooler Heads.Cooler Heads is a commercial-stage company addressing a problem affecting many chemotherapy patients undergoing treatment for solid tumors: hair loss and the loss of privacy that comes with it. The company's FDA-cleared medical device, Amma, makes scalp cooling accessible by fitting into infusion center workflows rather than disrupting them.Kate brings an unconventional background to medtech — from political fundraising to developing classified software for the U.S. government. As a solo female founder who had never worked in hardware, she started Cooler Heads in 2018 after her own experience with breast cancer. By mid-2025, the company had raised $11 million in Series A funding and placed devices across 27 states, with most accounts having never offered scalp cooling before.In this interview, Kate shares how to design for health system adoption by solving workflow problems first, why saying “no” to scope creep protects your first-generation product, and how political fundraising tactics translate directly to building investor relationships in medtech.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device and health technology founders and CEOs, and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.Second, if you want to peek behind the curtain of the world's most successful startups, you should consider a Medsider premium membership.

The Healthtech Marketing Podcast presented by HIMSS and healthlaunchpad
In this episode, I'm joined by three exceptional members of our Healthtech Marketing Network - Mariana Small, Elena Putilina, and Amy Swanson - who spearheaded our first-ever AI Cohort project. Together, they surveyed over 100 healthtech marketing leaders to understand how our community is actually using AI in their day-to-day work, moving beyond the hype to examine practical applications and real challenges.The research revealed some fascinating insights about where we stand as an industry. While 93% of respondents are using AI in some capacity, very few organizations have successfully integrated AI into their core workflows or developed strategic roadmaps for implementation. Perhaps most telling, almost no one is measuring AI's impact beyond basic productivity metrics, creating a significant gap between leadership's enthusiasm and actual business value demonstration.While leadership teams are generally supportive and see potential value, they're looking for AI to drive demand generation and performance improvements - not just cost savings. However, marketers are struggling with workflow integration, tool selection overwhelm, and demonstrating clear ROI. The community has identified four key areas where they need help: AI-based search optimization, future skills development, creating repeatable workflows, and establishing governance frameworks.This research confirms we're still in the early stages of AI adoption in healthtech marketing, but it also provides a clear roadmap for moving from experimentation to strategic implementation. The findings show that while the enthusiasm is there, we need to focus on building proper foundations.Key Topics Covered"(00:00:00) Introduction""(00:01:00) Meet the AI Cohort Team""(00:05:00) State of AI Usage in Healthtech Marketing""(00:07:00) Most Popular AI Tools and Applications""(00:09:00) The Measurement Challenge""(00:12:00) Management Expectations vs. Reality""(00:16:00) Organizational Bottlenecks and Barriers""(00:18:00) The Need for AI Champions""(00:19:00) What the Community Wants Next""(00:22:00) Governance and Ethics Considerations""(00:23:00) Personas, Sales Enablement, and Search""(00:26:00) Strategic vs. Tactical AI Implementation""(00:30:00) Closing Advice from the Research Team""(00:33:00) Key Takeaways and Webinar Announcement"Join us for an in depth webinar covering the AI Cohort Research on October 8th at 1 pm ET.If you are interested in discussing this or any other topic, let's have a chat.

Medsider Radio: Learn from Medical Device and Medtech Thought Leaders
In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Ahmed Elmouelhi, CEO of TRiCares. TRiCares is developing Topaz, the first purpose-built transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement system — a technology designed specifically for the right side of the heart, where complex anatomy has made durable solutions elusive.Ahmed is a 20-year medtech veteran with leadership experience across electrophysiology, men's health, neuromodulation, and structural heart. Before joining TRiCares, he helped build multiple businesses at AtriCure and held key roles at Medtronic during the early days of TAVR. He also serves as Chairman of the American Heart Association in Minnesota.In this interview, Ahmed shares why adoption — not added complexity — is the ultimate measure of medtech innovation, how a small group of physician champions can accelerate clinical studies faster than internal resources alone, and why treating your board like collaborators in the “sandbox” leads to stronger partnerships and better outcomes.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device and health technology founders and CEOs, and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.Second, if you want to peek behind the curtain of the world's most successful startups, you should consider a Medsider premium membership.

AI accelerates drug discovery while steroids turn teens into aggressive strangers. Dr. Michael Israetel explores our pharmaceutical crossroads here!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1209What We Discuss with Michael Israetel:GLP-1 drugs like Tirzepatide offer massive health benefits beyond weight loss — reducing inflammation, improving brain health, and decreasing addiction behaviors, even for people already in good shape.Steroids don't just amplify personality — they specifically amplify masculine traits like aggression and reduce empathy. Starting young can permanently rewire your brain's emotional and social processing.AI is about to revolutionize medicine by testing millions of drug candidates virtually, creating treatments 10x more effective with 10x fewer side effects. We're entering the pharmaceutical iPhone moment.The "only take drugs when sick" mindset worked in the 20th century, but is becoming dangerously outdated — like refusing elevators because you prefer human operators.When your diet plateaus, take a week-long break eating at maintenance. Your stress hormones will drop, body water will flush out, and you'll often look leaner than before.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

AI companies are hitting growth milestones in record time—some reaching $100 million in revenue in just two years.
