Dan Caron takes us on an inspiring journey through the landscape of healthcare tech innovation. When Dan hacked an insulin pump to create a groundbreaking automated pancreas, he not only changed the game for diabetes management but also shined a spotlight on the  potential of open source technology to redefine our health experiences. 

From his father's ingenious barter system sparking a young Dan's tech curiosity to the evolution of his career, merging the worlds of internet business and healthcare, his story is one of relentless passion and the drive to make a tangible difference.

Healthcare is on the cusp of a revolution, and AI and open-source technology are key enablers. Dan and I dissect how cooperative platforms like Health Universe are dismantling the walls that have kept life-saving algorithms in academic limbo, instead ushering them into hands-on clinical use. Understanding how this technology evolves from concept to real-world application underscores the vital role of platforms that provide immediate access to advanced tools, and Dan's insights guide us through this new age of medical innovation.
