This week, Chitrang Dave, Global Head of Enterprise Data & Analytics at Edwards Lifesciences, joins us to discuss the transformative power of real-time data, AI, and collaboration in medical device manufacturing and support.

He and host, Ross Katz, dive into how real-time data from IoT devices is reshaping quality assurance in medtech and what the future holds for medtech as big tech players like Apple and Meta enter the healthcare arena.

Together, they discuss everything from AI-powered patient identification to the integration of consumer wearables with FDA-approved medical devices. Tune in to hear how collaboration, innovation, and cutting-edge technology are improving patient outcomes and revolutionizing healthcare.

Data in Biotech is a fortnightly podcast exploring how companies leverage data innovation in the life sciences.
