Showing 9 - 16 of 272Replay: Leveraging Novel Technologies to Meet Unmet Medical Needs
There are two kinds of people in the world, says Brent Vaughan — those who prefer to make incremental changes with a lower likelihood of failure, and those who aspire to fix (seemingly) intractable problems that have stymied others. Brent falls in the latter category. A serial entrepreneur, former venture capitalist, and current CEO of Cognito Therapeutics (a DTx company that specializes in neurodegenerative diseases), Brent is also uniquely positioned to evaluate the future of next generation digital therapeutics.
Brent and Eugene talk about the differences between prescription and business-to-consumer DTx, the importance of engaging patients and users early on in the development of novel products, and the exciting potential of translational DTx solutions. Eugene’s podcast partner, Brian Dolan, also pops in with a question.

Replay: Treating Disease Progression with DTx: Dr. Mark Berman Shares Insights on Innovative Prescription Digital Therapeutics
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based form of therapy that has been in use for decades. My guest in this episode believes that CBT can be applied to create better therapeutics, and, in fact, that’s exactly what his company is called: Better Therapeutics.
Dr. Mark Berman, the Chief Medical Officer at Better Therapeutics, explained that the goal of CBT is to “help people change some of those core beliefs, which then directly influence what we do on a day to day basis.”
And while CBT was originally applied to help people with conditions like PTSD, anxiety and depression, the team at Better Therapeutics have developed their own variant of CBT to apply the core principles of CBT to the ideas that drive root behaviors like diet, exercise and other supportive lifestyle behaviors.
Tune into this episode to hear how Better Therapeutics are creating new digital treatments to reverse the progression of cardiometabolic disease, improve quality of life and inform clinical decisions.
In this episode, we cover:
Patient experience using digital therapeutics for type 2 diabetes
Nutritional CBT – Better Therapeutics innovative new form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Why companies are opting to create Prescription Digital Therapies rather than self-managed lifestyle apps
What’s next in the Better Therapeutics pipeline and how these decisions are made
The future of Digital Therapeutic infrastructure

Feed Drop: Pharmaphorum Podcast – Digital Therapeutics at a Turning Point – What We Heard at DTx East
In this special feed drop hear Eugene Borukhovich in conversation with Pharmaphorum Editor in Chief Jonah Comstock discussing what they saw and heard at DTx East in Boston.
This year the digital therapeutics space took a hit with the downfall of Pear Therapeutics, one of the most well-known of the industry’s still-active pioneers. Combined with Akili Interactive’s hard pivot to OTC , some in the industry are wondering whether standalone prescription digital therapeutics are a failed experiment.
