Our Story

PulseMedica's Founding Story

PulseMedica’s story began when Dr. Nir Katchinskiy completed his PhD under the supervision of Prof. Abdulhakem Elezzabi at the University of Alberta. Their research focused on femtosecond laser-tissue interaction.

 

In 2020, Nir participated in the Creative Destruction Lab - Rockies (CDL-R) program where he met Eric Martin, who was pursuing his MBA at the University of Alberta.

 

United by their commitment and passion for enacting change for those suffering from eye disease, Abdul, Nir, and Eric co-founded PulseMedica with invaluable guidance and support from CDL-R mentors.
