Biodesign Speaker Series
Biodesign Speaker Series
Stanford Biodesign launched the From the Innovator’s Workbench speaker’s series in 2003 to enable the Stanford Biodesign community and the public to learn from the greatest health technology innovators of our time. With multiple Innovator’s Workbench events held annually, each one features an individual or a panel of innovators being interviewed about their innovation process, insights, and perspectives on the changing healthcare landscape.
David Cassak, a renowned healthcare journalist, is the host of the series. In this role, he has interviewed leaders across the health technology industry, beginning with Thomas Fogarty, legendary surgeon and inventor, for the first Workbench event.
The series is currently sponsored by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.
Please watch our News & Events page for upcoming offerings in the From the Innovator’s Workbench series.
