[🌵] EPISODE 43. For this new episode I am delighted to speak with Erick Garcia Cordero, co-founder of Rea 🎧✨

Pregnant women🤰at risk of a preterm birth spend up to three months in the hospital 🏥 However, only 30% of these hospitalised patients will deliver preterm 👩‍🍼

Together with co-founder Loulia Kassem, Erick is creating a new generation of diagnostic devices for the preterm birth market 🩺 Rea’s innovative product, a smart pad, is the only non-invasive medical test 🔬 to screen for biomarkers in vaginal secretions related to a risk of a premature birth 🐣

With roots in both EPFL and CHUV, this technology will enable pregnant women🤰🏽to perform home monitoring, hence reducing unnecessary hospitalisation and related stress 🌀

In this episode Erick explains how he came to develop this femtech innovation ⚡️ the major challenges they have been facing 👨‍⚕️ and how their startup has obtained tremendous support from major Swiss institutions 🚀
