The Past and Future of Addiction and Medicine - Exploring the great successes and tragic failures of industry in healthcare with Drew Gupta
Drew is currently a student at Harvard Medical School, and graduated from Yale University in 2020. His experience includes Research on Genetics, aging, and Alzheimer's disease at the Massachusetts General Hospital, and he has multiple publications in influential Neuroscience journals such as eNeuro. He was editor-in-chief of the Yale Journal of Medicine and Law, and also has an extensive Entrepreneurial background. He founded the 501(c)(3) Non-profit Dose of Justice, which is dedicated to fighting the Opioid Crisis and reducing the stigma surrounding those plagued by Opioid addiction. Most recently, Drew co-founded Mobile Memory, a startup which is leveraging Deep Learning to take a fresh and sustainable approach to early Alzheimer's diagnosis.
