Welcome!

For too many people, starting a family is more challenging than it should be.

The Preprint is about the science, innovation, and policies that can fix this—and it is about ensuring women and families are getting the care they deserve.

I’m a physician who spent my career caring for families and working to improve the systems who serve them. I am Chief Medical Officer at Maven Clinic, the world’s largest virtual clinic for women and families. I think technology has the power to enable our best ideas.

What we do here

The best scientists and the best entrepreneurs are actually very similar people. They apply rigor to their curiosity. They test hypotheses. They study the data. They persist until their questions are answered.

Twice a month, I’ll share data and dispatches from the frontlines of our effort to design, test, and scale a novel model of care that serves over 20M people in 175 countries.

Sometimes, I share peer-reviewed research from my team at Maven. Other times, in the true spirit of a preprint, I’ll share breaking trends and analytics insights that have not been published yet. Often, it will just be conversations with people I think have essential kernels of knowledge to share—scientists, health equity leaders, and even artists. Always, we’ll be asking questions, applying healthy skepticism, but remaining relentlessly optimistic that better health care is possible
