DeviceTalks Weekly

In response to the recent disquiet junto challenge: Truck radio train.
I used two samples from freesound:
-  It rains » The rain falls against the parasol : https://freesound.org/people/straget/sounds/531947/
-Motorradlärm01.wav: https://freesound.org/people/mark646/sounds/187905/

Also a recording from  Wide-band WebSDR :  http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ 

Software for processing Spear and Grain3fi (a Cabbage granular sample player).




The Assignment: Locate three sound sources and make something with them.

Step 1: Locate online (freesound.org 3, for example) or record by yourself the following three sounds: a vehicle driving speedily, static between radio stations, and rain.

Step 2: Make an original piece of music using those three sounds. Do what you want with them, but only use those three sounds.

Background: “Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When we listen to it, we find it fascinating,” John Cage said in his 1937 lecture, “The Future of Music: Credo.” He continued: “The sound of a truck at fifty miles per hour. Static between the stations. Rain. We want to capture and control these sounds, to use them, not as sound effects, but as musical instruments.” In this week’s Disquiet Junto project, we take the proposition literally.

Indus Original Mix Jose Rodriguez-Justo Perez & Tony Era for JAM 21

For years, medtech companies have known connectivity was good for them, but the promise of data streaming through devices didn't match the reality. COVID-19 changed that, creating an opportunity for device companies with connectivity plans in place.

In this episode, we speak with Dr. David Hayes, CMO of Biotronik, about that companies success in connecting cardiology patients. Meanwhile, Bill Betten of S3 Connected Health explains what device companies must do to prepare for medtech's next age. 

We also review the week's top news involving Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson, Abbott, Edwards, and Smith+Nephew

Is Medtech finally ready to capitalize on the promise of connectivity?

In this week’s podcast, we talk with Holly Logue, general counsel at Drawbridge Health, about the OneDraw, an innovative new tool that might upend the collecting, storage and testing of blood. Logue, a panelist in the upcoming DeviceTalks Tuesdays sponsored by Finnegan, will explain how her past work on Capitol Hill is helping this Silicon Valley company’s plans.

Meanwhile, we speak with Daveen Chopra, corporate vice president of surgical structural heart at Edwards Lifesciences, about that company’s commitment to treating the most serious cardiac patients. The company recently won FDA approval for its Konect Resilia aortic valve conduit, a vital new tool in helping heart patients, including many requiring emergency story.

Co-costs Tom Salemi, editorial director of DeviceTalks, and Chris Newmarker, executive editor of life sciences at MassDevice, review the five biggest news stories of the week. We'll talk about Abbott, Becton Dickinson, Boston Scientific, Edwards Lifesciences, and Theranos. Number one may surprise you.

Can Drawbridge, Edwards bring disruptive innovation to blood drawing, heart surgery industries?

In this week’s podcast, two executives from Thrive Earlier Detection explain how the “turbo-charged” diagnostics company intends to upend how, when and where cancer is diagnosed. Isaac Kinde, MD, PhD, co-founder and head of research and innovation, walks us through the company’s CancerSEEK test and how the company is marrying new technology with an innovative clinical approach. Meanwhile, Isaac Ro, tells host Tom Salemi how the company closed on $257 million (hint: lots of Zoom) and why he left a career on Wall Street to join this innovative start-up. 

Chris Newmarker, executive editor of life sciences at MassDevice, also counts down on the biggest newsmakers in this week’s MassDevice.

Ten ways medtech is finding its footing during the pandemic 

When COVID19 set upon the US in March, medtech executives had a month at most to tell Wall Street analysts how the pandemic had hit the industry’s largest companies. We heard about short-term hits in revenues, procedures and employee headcounts, but uncertainty clearly ruled the day.

Over the past weeks, medtech executives from several leading companies reported back to analysts with a full quarter under their belt. To be sure, no one can claim to hold a full grasp on this crisis, but a survey of the calls reveals several observations worth pointing out . 

In this podcast, we’ll list our Top 10.

DeviceTalks Weekly: Ep. 22 –  This week’s episode of DeviceTalks Weekly is brought to you by the later V, as in Vizient and Vicarious Surgical.

Bharat Sundaram, COO and president of Vizient, will share how the healthcare supplier is strengthening the supply of PPE for hospitals. He'll also reveal when the company expects to see US hospitals running at pre-Covid levels. Hint, it'll be a while.

Adam Sachs, CEO of Vicarious Surgical, tells us how the company will put a new round of capital from high-powered investors to work in developing to develop a surgical system employing robotic and virtual reality technologies. How does the start-up expect to compete with the established leaders in the robotics space?

Co-host Chris Newmarker, executive editor, life sciences, will walk us through the five biggest newsmakers on the MassDevice site. Number one may surprise you, but given the time, perhaps it shouldn’t.

Vizient on PPE, Vicarious on VR-aided robotics and let's all hope for pumpernickel

Dr. Robert Kowal, CMO of Medtronic’s cardiac rhythm and heart failure business and vice president of medical affairs, explains how new tech, savvy patients, eager physicians and, yes, COVID-19, has fueled a renaissance for remote technology, once seen as a mature, staid business. Dr. Kowal also shares an amazing story of a patient who may owe his life to a timely conversation between his pacemaker and cellphone.

Jon Norris, managing director of healthcare at Silicon Valley Bank, delivers three big takeaways from his report on 2020 fundraising. Medtech venture capitalists and start-ups didn’t let the lockdown slow their fund-raising efforts, and their efforts were buoyed by surprising strong exiting opportunities through IPOs and M&A.

Co-hosts Chris Newmarker and Tom Salemi review the medtech industry’s response to the riot and occupation of the Capitol building. This week’s #NewmarkersNewsmakers includes news from Smith & Nephew, Stryker, and the disappearing Haven.

Medtronic’s Kowal on remote tech’s rebirth, SVB’s Norris delivers good news for VCs, CEOs

Nick is joined by Levy Board Chair, Paul Darling QC, to discuss the implications of Sports Minister Nigel Huddleston MP's indication to racing's stakeholders that he is "not convinced that immediate reform of the levy, either temporary or otherwise, is the right way to respond to the financial difficulties faced by the racing industry." In a subsequent letter, Huddleston has reinforced the government's position in the event of some stakeholder communication before Christmas. Later in the edition, RTE broadcaster Jane Mangan gives her take on the situation for amateur competitors in the sport and yesterday's action at Naas, while Keri Brion talks to Nick about America's bid to win the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham.
