Really excited to be on an @Advance_CTR design thinking webinar now w/ @AaronJHorowitz of @Sproutel. The applications to medical populations are endless. ❤️ the user-center focus. It’s easy to see the need for these approaches especially in these days of disconnection & disparity
Sproutel's work in understanding the impact of COVID-19 on well-being continued in the weeks after Thanksgiving, leading up to the holidays. We found sparks of hope as attitudes appear to be shifting toward a more candid conversation about mental health. https://t.co/a8AEHsWnNU
"Through their own motions, kids can...understand there's things you can do to calm down and that you're a person who has the ability to manage yourself," says our VP of Innovation @miadoces in @usnews! @mypurrble@Sproutel https://t.co/9htRIbUCen
Targeting KRAS in cancer has been a 40-year quest by scientists and researchers around the world, including Amgen’s own Rusty Lipford.
Rusty recently spoke with @aaronjhorowitz of @sproutel about the KRAS gene and how science is actually built upon 90% failure.
It was great talking to Rusty about his breakthrough work targeting KRAS in cancer. Fascinating to learn that drug discovery & research is all about failing forward, paralleling the design process!
Thank you @Amgen for the opportunity to share about our work at @Sproutel !
We are kicking off our Qualitative Methods Series on Feb. 17 with “Design Thinking” presented by @AaronJHorowitz CEO of @Sproutel
