“It takes a catalyst to create meaningful change. Those who are catalysts shake the status quo, adding new ideas, new dreams and perspectives that can shift the societal dogma”. 

TEDxCMU ‘21

As catalysts themselves, three morphers talk about applications that bring technical innovation, evoke emotion and provoke reflection for healthcare.
