Cutting Edge: Where Neurosurgery Meets Innovation

Dr. Priyank Vasavada is a neurosurgeon who refuses to stay confined to the operating room. As the founder of HYGO and AI Health at Madhuram Hospital in Rajkot, India, he's working at the intersection of brain surgery, artificial intelligence, and healthcare entrepreneurship. With experience spanning trust-funded public hospitals, corporate healthcare systems, and private practice, Dr. Vasavada brings a unique perspective on what's broken in healthcare—and what it'll take to fix it. In this episode, we explore the future of brain-computer interfaces, how nanorobotics might one day treat neurological disease, and what happens when a surgeon decides to become a startup founder.
