From Pakistan to Stanford Breaking Barriers in Neuroscience and Innovation with Dr. Maheen Mausoof Adamson

This week on The KORE Women podcast, Dr. Summer Watson welcomes Dr. Maheen Mausoof Adamson, who is a neuroscientist, Stanford clinical professor of neurosurgery, healthcare innovator, and founder of Soof Solutions. Dr. Adamson’s journey spans continents, cultures, and disciplines, from growing up in Karachi, Pakistan, where expectations for girls were very different, to becoming a leading voice in neuroscience research and healthcare innovation in the United States. In this conversation, she shares the moment she first saw the brain under a microscope and knew she had found her calling, the challenges she faced as a woman navigating academia and science, and why she decided to step into entrepreneurship to translate research into real-world impact. We also discuss mentorship, supporting women in STEM, and why questioning social norms and pursuing knowledge without limits is essential for the next generation of leaders.
