Leo is the founder of Neural Analytics, a company that is building technology that lets physicians and techs get past the skull and to the brain without any surgery.  This allows them to see traumatic brain damage, stroke, or any number of things without being too invasive. This is a life saver, and I cannot wait to see Leo develop his company in the coming years. In this episode, we go into the technology, into Leo's story and his company's story, and get extremely detailed into the process of starting a biotech company. Anyone even remotely interested in biotech companies should check this episode out since we do a great job at demystifying the process and having fun while doing it.
Here is his company website if you are excited to learn more: website.
