#081 Medical Innovation 101 — Dr David Albert (Founder AliveCor) Big Picture Medicine
-
- Medicine
Dr David Albert is a physician, inventor and serial entrepreneur.
He studied at both Harvard and Duke University Medical School. In 2001, he sold Data Critical to GE in a deal that valued Data Critical at $45M. Perhaps his Magnum Opus: AliveCor has raised over $150M and creates devices which are able to take ECGs or heart traces — from anywhere, at anytime. It’s newest innovation: The KardiaMobile Card is a credit card which can take an ECG — all whilst fitting into your wallet.
He also has over 75 patents and 100 scientific publications.
We speak about his formula and framework for innovating, lessons he’s learnt from his buddies such as Eric Topol and Vinod Khosla and whether everything in Medicine should be democratised.
I hope you enjoy.
