Join us for our next Innovators Circle featuring Korinne Jew, Sr. Director of Clinical Research and Medical Science at Medtronic, and a longtime leader within MDIC’s Science of Patient Input (SPI) workstream.

This session will explore how medical device teams can meaningfully integrate patient insights early in development- an area that remains challenging across the industry. Kori will walk attendees through MDIC’s new Patient Engagement (PE) Estimation Tool, including the rationale behind its creation, lessons learned from early testers, and a live demo showcasing how teams can use the tool to identify high‑value engagement opportunities.

Designed for professionals working in patient engagement, clinical research, R&D, and human‑centered design, this discussion will highlight practical strategies to bring the patient voice into device design sooner and more effectively.

Agenda:

  • MDIC Overview
  • Driving Adoption of Patient Engagement: Presentation by Kori Jew
  • PE Estimation Tool demo + early testing insights
  • Future vision
  • Q&A
