Motivation

Why are we doing this? Dr. Volpe asked to be on the advisory board and has given really good feedback, and we are honoured. Very happy to do so.

What use cases does it support? The more doctors can inform us on the product, the close we can get to product-market fit and help the users. It will also help us with our distribution model if doctors ask patients use this if they see the usefulness.

What is the expected outcome? We have another medical expert on our advisory board. It increases our legitimacy and gets us closer to product-market fit.

None, this is the lowest cost implementation.
