## Resource

What if frontline clinicians everywhere had instant access to expert-level stroke imaging — no matter where a patient arrives? In this episode of Med Tech Gurus, we're joined by Michalis Papadakis, CEO and Co-Founder of Brainomix, an Oxford University spin-out using AI to transform how stroke is diagnosed and treated. With a background in neuroscience from Imperial College London, UCL, and the University of Oxford, Michalis built Brainomix with a singular mission: ensure patients don't miss out on life-saving stroke treatments due to delays or lack of imaging expertise. Under his leadership, Brainomix developed Brainomix 360 Stroke, the world's first fully automated AI imaging suite for stroke care — now deployed in more than 30 countries, backed by 50+ clinical publications, and processing patient scans in minutes with results delivered in under sixty seconds. In this conversation, we explore how starting with a true clinical unmet need, relentless evidence generation, and seamless workflow integration enabled Brainomix to scale globally and materially improve patient outcomes. If you care about AI in healthcare, stroke innovation, clinical adoption, or scaling medtech from academia to enterprise, this is a blueprint worth hearing.
