How SpineDAO Is Redefining DeSci - From Back Pain to Blockchain

What if your next spine surgery was coordinated by a DAO?

In Episode 48 of the Molecule Podcast, we’re joined by Vincent Challier, spine surgeon and co-founder of SpineDAO, and Virginie Lafage, medical strategist and Core Team member, to explore how decentralized science can transform a field as specialized and critical—as spinal health.

SpineDAO is building one of the first focused medical DAOs on the Bio Launchpad. In this episode, we cover:

• Why spinal health is overlooked in innovation

• The power of patient and clinician-led DAOs

• Challenges of onboarding medical professionals into DeSci

• Real-world use cases for DAOs in healthcare

• Why Solana? Technical decisions behind the DAO’s design

Whether you’re into biotech, DAOs, or the future of decentralized medicine, this conversation bridges science, surgery, and Web3 in a way you’ve never heard before.
