Inspired by a simple, well-recognized household item, UW Medicine Cardiologist Dr. David Linker has created a lifesaver -- an invention that detects dangerous abnormal heart rhythms. The core technology is a diagnostic "smart" chip enclosed in a band-aid size strip a patient wears on the skin over the heart. It weighs less than a quarter of an ounce and can record heart rhythms for seven days. Hear how this diagnostic "smart" chip is uncovering hidden heart conditions and saving lives as Dr. Linker shares his personal journey from idea to impact, from lab to marketplace.
