👏 Introducing Auctus Surgical, Inc., one of the nine innovative companies in the H7 Accelerator 2024 Cohort, powered by H7 BioCapital! 🦴 Scoliosis affects over 1 million adolescents every year. Around 15% of these children have severe enough scoliosis that a full-torso brace is required and worn daily in order to stop the progression of the curve, however, this brace can cause long-lasting damage. Auctus Surgical, Inc. is producing a flexible and minimally invasive device that is surgically implanted into the child’s spine that can be magnetically lengthened and altered. Because the device is flexible, it does not hinder any movement of the spine, allowing the child to live and move freely. ⚜️ John Ashley, the CEO of Auctus Surgical, Inc., has worked in management for over 8 different medical device start-ups. He and the rest of his management team previously worked at CoAlign Interventions which developed the world's first expandable interbody fusion cage for low back surgery. Along with his years of knowledge in managing start-ups, John also has a B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT. ✨ We couldn’t be more excited to have Auctus Surgical, Inc. be part of the H7 Accelerator 2024 Cohort! #H7Accelerator2024Cohort #H7BioCapital #HealthcareStartup #Scoliosis #AdolescentHealth #AdolescentScoliosis #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalDevice #AuctusSurgical
