“One particularly rewarding experience in my career was being part of the Heartport team that developed a novel system for minimally invasive cardiac surgery. This team included cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and engineers with experience developing a wide variety of devices. In the Rosenman Institute, I’ve found an opportunity to work with a similarly eclectic and even more experienced team to help identify, nurture, and advance promising ideas that will become therapies with broad clinical impact.”
