The Pod of Asclepius is a healthcare technology podcast for the technical crowd.
No fluff, no sales pitches, just important health tech ideas (described well!) to help everyone keep learning and becoming more of an expert in the field.
Our guests are top researchers (from academia and industry), entrepreneurs, and regulatory experts. They will talk about cool technology, from data science to engineering, but also share insights on practical concerns of bridging the gap between technical innovation and a clinical solution.
