    On Demand recording of Automating the pre-commercial exit as a strategy for high-value startups presented by Amr Salahieh, serial entrepreneur and founder of Sadra Medical and Shifamed, at Medical Device Playbook Newport Beach 2024 is now available for on demand viewing.

  • Andy Talbot, wearing a black sweater, speaks at a podium with a microphone. The podium features a colorful brain-themed logo associated with the "Medical Device Playbook 2024." A computer monitor is visible beside him, and the background displays a large blue presentation slide with abstract elements.

    Drawing on their extensive experience in executive roles and high-tech M&A, the speakers delivered an engaging discussion tailored for MedTech founders and executives.

  • A syringe aimed at the center of a black-and-white target, symbolizing precision. The text overlay reads "Precision Drug Activation" with a blurred laboratory background.

    In this episode of Bio Break, Joris van der Heijden and Nick Allan discuss an advanced category of combination devices: drug activation devices. Unlike drug delivery devices that transport medication to specific locations, drug activation devices ensure the drug becomes active precisely where it is needed in the body, reducing systemic side effects and enhancing therapeutic effectiveness.

  • A glowing AI chip embedded within a futuristic black and gold circuit board, symbolizing advanced artificial intelligence and technological innovation.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly become a transformative force across industries, but its application in medical devices presents unique challenges. In his article "A Practical Future of Developing AI for Medical Devices" for MD+DI, Thor Tronrud, a Research and Data Analysis-Focused Software Engineer at StarFish Medical, sheds light on bridging knowledge gaps, navigating regulatory constraints, and developing robust AI solutions for medical devices.

  • FDA Laboratory Developed Tests Policy

    The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made a significant update to its regulatory approach for in vitro diagnostic products (IVDs), including laboratory developed tests (LDTs). Detailed in a FDA Laboratory Developed Tests Policy guidance document issued on June 25, 2024.

  • Drug Delivery Devices for Cell and Gene Therapies

    Drug Delivery Solutions for Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT) Challenges explores effective delivery devices and solutions for advanced CGT therapies and their unique challenges.

  • Aerosol Drug Delivery Systems graphic

    Aerosol Drug Delivery Systems, including Aerosol-based pulmonary-delivered drug devices, offer significant value by enabling targeted drug delivery directly to the respiratory system.

  • Drug Delivery System Imaging - MRI image that can be used to direct treatments to specific parts of the brain

    Drug Delivery System Imaging Technology options include MRI, CT, and Ultrasound. This article highlights advantages and disadvantages for each technology in guiding drug delivery.

  • An illustrated concept of assay development featuring a blurred laboratory background with a focus on a magnifying glass emphasizing the text 'LOQ vs. LOD Explained.' The image also includes an upward-pointing arrow symbolizing progress and precision in diagnostics and analytics.

    Dive into the world of assay development with this informative episode of Bio Break, where Nick and Joris explore two critical concepts: Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantification (LOQ). These terms might sound similar, but their implications for clinical diagnostics and medical devices are vastly different. Whether you’re an engineer, researcher, or product developer, this video sheds light on why both LOD and LOQ are vital in ensuring the precision and reliability of diagnostic tests.
