Estelle as a new mother, during her pregnancy, had experienced what many other women have to go through having to manage multiple appointments, measure her blood pressure multiple times a day and medication incompatibilities. She realised that these issues were not uncommon and although there existed many apps and tools, there was nothing available to help manage her own health during this time period. Having started her career in academia as a professor at The University of Western Australia and then transitioning to industry working at Illumina within Genomics, she used her knowledge to co-found Trellis Health to create lasting change and reframe the way pregnant mothers take control of their care. On this episode she discusses how throughout the seventies up until the nineties, how women were excluded from clinical trials hence why the data has not always existed to create viable solutions for female health, the reality of genetics in terms of what is seen in movies separating fact from fiction, the emerging technologies we can look forward to seeing in terms of data science and genomics, her journey through pregnancy leading to the formation of Trellis Health, needs in female healthcare, what the gaps in the market currently are within Femtech and the empowering nature of remaining curious and the opportunities it can bring.
