Transition from academia to startup

Zeeshan Syed, PhD is the CEO of Health at Scale. Zeeshan’s story begins with his time in academia: he was formerly a Clinical Associate Professor at Stanford Medicine and an Associate Professor with Tenure in Computer Science at the University of Michigan. After his father suffered a silentheart attack that might have been mitigated by proactive care, Zeeshan pivoted to impacting real-world outcomes by starting Health at Scale. He aims to improve patient outcomes through machine intelligence.
