DTW Podcast DeviceTalks Weekly podcast Boston Scientific Jeff Mirviss Hologic Eric KolodziejIn this week’s episode of the DeviceTalks Weekly Podcast, Boston Scientific peripheral business EVP Jeff Mirviss explains why the specialty’s name doesn’t really reflect the importance of arteries, veins and other critical “highways” in the body.

Mirviss explains where the peripheral business is headed, and why Boston Scientific is uniquely positioned to address the business.

He also shares lessons learned over his 20-plus years at Boston Scientific including the challenges presented by the Guidant acquisition and the necessary spirit infused by CEO Michael Mahoney.

Also on this week’s podcast, Eric Kolodziej, corporate VP and global head quality and regulatory affairs at Hologic, about how clinical trial management is changing. What role will real-world evidence play going forward, and how will Hologic and others follow up on the record number of EUA’s issued over the past year by the FDA.

Kolodziej will be part of a panel of regulatory experts on tomorrow’s DeviceTalks Tuesday.

Chris Newmarker, executive editor of life sciences at Mass Device, delivers his Newmarker’s Newsmakers bringing news from Medtronic, Abbott, Zimmer Biomet and Shockwave Medical.

Pharma Editor Brian Buntz also sits in the virtual podcast booth to talk about the new Pharma 50 report compiled by our editorial team.
