Bio:

Mintu Turakhia M.D. M.A.S. is a cardiac electrophysiologist, outcomes researcher, and clinical trialist. He is the Director and Co-Founder of the Stanford Center for Digital Health (CDH) and the American Heart Association-funded Heart Health Technology Center. In his clinical role, he performs invasive procedures such as catheter ablation and device implantation to treat heart rhythm disorders.

Dr. Turakhia has an active multidisciplinary program in heart rhythm and digital health research, where uses biostatistical, health economic, and data science approaches to examine quality, outcomes, and risk of heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation in very large datasets. He has served as principal investigator of several multi-center trials of digital health tools and wearables for heart disease diagnosis and treatment, including the landmark Apple Heart Study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, and he collaborates closely on research with med device and tech companies. At the Center for Digital Health, he leads several large public-private partnership efforts to develop tech-enabled disease management programs for heart disease, including hypertension and heart failure. He is Chair of the inaugural 2022 HRX Digital Health Conference.

Dr. Turakhia has published over 250 manuscripts and has led several high-impact professional society guidelines for heart rhythm disorders and digital health. In less than 9 years, he has rapidly risen to the rank of full Professor at Stanford since starting as an Assistant Professor. He is an elected member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation and is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, and Heart Rhythm Society. Dr. Turakhia has served as an executive, advisor, and investor to over 50 medical device, drug, and health technology companies across the life cycle, from early stage to IPO with several recent exits in digital health.
