LTP022 Dr. Adi Diner, Changing The Standard of Care for People with ADHD Leap To Purpose
-
- Entrepreneurship
Today, we’re happy to have Dr. Adi Diner on the show. Adi is a physicist who co-founded iFocus Health, a company that aims to help ADHD patients track their ADHD. Adi thought of doing this as she and her kid are persons diagnosed with ADHD themselves, and they have no way of knowing which medications work or not.
With this pain point, Adi started iFocus. Instead of coming up with an expensive instrument, Adi and her team use only a webcam and a Chrome extension to do eye tracking to the person diagnosed with ADHD. The data then gets recorded and becomes a becomes available for doctor’s interpretation. Ultimately, iFocus helps tell if the patient is getting better or not.
Adi worked with hundreds of persons from different fields to make her vision happen. She worked with clinicians, ADHD patients and parents, administrators, a data scientist (her sister), and many others. She did all the necessary tests to her friends and their kids with ADHD and got astounding results.
With iFocus, Adi dreams that people with ADHD would get the same care that people with other medical conditions get. Luckily, Adi has been getting a lot of support from advisors and people in the community.
As Adi and her team in iFocus get ready for more to come, she left some words for others who would like also follow their passion and do something meaningful: you need to be resilient. Making mistakes is inevitable, so get ready. In the end, no one has it easy, so be ready to get comfortable outside your comfort zone.
