Our Approach
How the lab works.
Knowledge center for emerging technologies
HTL serves as a central resource linking front-line pain points with the best validated technology solutions — reimagining patient care to be more continuous, coordinated, and convenient.
Clinical care accelerator
We work directly with front-line clinicians on real pain points — remote monitoring, telemedicine, patient engagement — accelerating promising ideas through creation, validation, and implementation.
Training future leaders
Through workshops, entrepreneur-in-residence rotations, and innovator training, HTL builds the innovation skills clinicians need to change how care is delivered.
Collaborators maximize impact
We bridge the gap between promising healthcare startups and front-line clinical pain points, partnering with industry and startups to validate technology and study real delivery interventions.
