A device that looks like an astronaut’s helmet and helps you breathe, but not in space, instead, in a hospital… is it science fiction? Arpan and his team at Clarivent will certainly disagree!
On the second part of Med Tech Talks with Arpan Grover, our co-hosts Geoff and Abdo dive deeper into Arpan’s professional trajectory, as he delves into his time at COSMIC during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how Clarivent came out of it as a by-product, and now a full-time job for Arpan.
