This week’s guest is a Harvard-trained physician-scientist, inventor, entrepreneur, and serial innovator. The one and only Sean Ianchulev shares his story as an emigrant of communist Bulgaria who overcame many obstacles to become one of the top innovators in the field of ophthalmology. We learn why he committed to the uncertain winding path of innovation over the straight-line physician career/clinical practice. Early formative projects on digital diagnostics with the first virtual device for online perimetry and intra-operative aberrometry and understanding the role of industry/capital in taking R&D and discovery out of “neutral” and into over-drive to bring it to patients and physicians. And don’t forget about Eyenovia’s breakthrough technology for smart micro-therapeutics and the possibility to solve the global problems of progressive myopia and presbyopia...telemedicine and vision without boundaries...and innovation for global outreach and disease treatment. How he plans to change the equation of trickle down technology to the developing world where the biggest unmet need is.
