Pioneering Medical Communications

The Seattle Science Foundation began as a collaborative effort between David Sabey, Dr. Mark Reisman of Swedish's Heart and Vascular Institute and Joanie Block, former manager of Neuroscience Research and Education at the Seattle Neuroscience Institute. The common vision was 1) a center for physician education and training, conducted in a neutral environment that would foster communication and collaboration among medical professionals and industry, regardless of affiliations, and 2) a robust audio/visual production capability, access to an expansive international network and ample connectivity to transmit images and learning from the best in the medical world to those eager to learn, adopt, and improve upon their techniques.

A year after its launch, the Seattle Science foundation has held many educational sessions and transmissions around the world, including Tokyo, Beijing, and Vladivostok.
