Full bio

As a scientist, I have grown frustrated with the way medical and scientific research is conducted; people are expected to use scientific journals to obtain information that could help them resolve their questions. In reality though, most people just end up wasting a lot of time and resources analyzing papers without any returns. I, just like many other scientists out there, have spent countless hours reading material hoping to catch a break - the break is rarely found. Thus, I've created Innovation Choice Group. This is a place where scientists can find rapid solutions to their specific questions through expert advice.
