Massdevice features Auris Health’s ACCESS study results, which were first announced at CHEST 2018 in San Antonio, Texas by Dr. Alexander Chen from Washington University in St. Louis. This study was the follow-up to the REACH study, which focused on the Monarch Platform’s ability to reach deeper into the lung’s periphery. With the ACCESS study, eight investigators performed robotic-assisted procedures using the Monarch Platform on a cadaveric model designed to mimic a real-life bronchoscopy procedure.

Dr. Frederic Moll, CEO of Auris Health was featured in The Wall Street Journal in an article about Auris and its innovative technologies. Dr. Moll, a serial entrepreneur and surgical robotics visionary, helped pioneer Auris’s beginnings and has pushed for medical innovation for over 30 years. He co-founded his first start-up, Endotherapeutics Corp., in the 1980s, developing products for laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery. Gil Kliman, an investor in Restoration Robotics (another one of Dr. Moll’s ventures), said of Dr. Moll’s drive for success: “He is the one human that will never be replaced by a robot. He won’t give up on things; he can push though the inevitable naysayers.”
