In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Josh Vose, CEO of Tulavi Therapeutics.

Tulavi is advancing hydrogel-based implants like the allay Hydrogel Cap, which is designed to optimize nerve injury recovery and reduce the risk of neuroma formation.

Josh is a physician, engineer, and entrepreneur with more than 20 years of experience in medical devices. He has held leadership roles at Medtronic following its acquisition of PEAK Surgical and drove growth at startups including SIA Health, which he led through commercialization and acquisition by Integra LifeSciences.

In this interview, Josh shares why defining the clinical problem with absolute clarity is the foundation of medtech success, and how leaning into the harder regulatory path can create lasting moats.
