What does it take to pioneer a breakthrough in research and have the persistence to see it adopted around the world?
In Episode 6, Zachary Gobst sits down with Dr. Mark Gorovoy, a nationally recognized ophthalmologist and one of the key figures behind DSAEK, the procedure that transformed corneal transplantation.
From the value of high-volume surgical practice to patient-centered innovation, Dr. Gorovoy shares how learning from challenges drives real progress in medicine.
In this episode:
- The untold story behind DSAEK’s adoption
- How innovation spreads from one OR to thousands
- The role of gene therapy and cell-based advances in corneal care
- What most clinical trials get wrong and how to fix it
We’re excited to share our discussion with Dr. Gorovoy, who embodies the intersection of curiosity, care, and courage in clinical research.
