S2 Ep-30 - Gabe Tzeghai, Ph.D. joins us to talk staying healthy through your struggles as a side hustler

Gabe Tzeghai, Ph.D. is co-founder and CEO of Summit Innovation Labs, the maker of OptiCel. He is also an elected member of the prestigious United States National Academy, Bio Medical Engineering Division, for improving global health through inventions, development and commercialization of critical health care products. His leadership experiences in scientific research and business development include over 18 years as Health Care Global Executive at the Procter & Gamble in the US and in international assignments. 

Since his days in graduate school at Columbia University and City University of New York, Dr. Tzeghai wondered why we wait and try to manage symptoms of serious disease like cardiovascular disease (CVD) after the disease sets in the body and not endeavor to prevent it or at least delay the onset of the disease.

Over the years he watched and contributed to the progress of medical sciences and health technologies and formulated a vison of what could be. By integrating his years of learning from various sources, he has been able to scientifically define the real causes of the onset of the CVD at a cellular level.
