Sharon Todd is chatting to Adam Scott, the Director of Cardiac Sciences at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital. Adam has a PhD in Cardiac Medicine, from the University of London, Imperial College in the UK. Adam is an Adjunct Professor at QUT and is the Founder and Chairman of the White Cloud Foundation. He is passionate about creating solutions for problems in the health sector that have previously not been able to be solved. In doing so, he has created a Robotic Ultrasound solution to enable patients in regional/rural areas to access same day ultrasound procedures. At the White Cloud Foundation, he developed the Tele-Mental Health service which has removed the barriers to accessing mental health treatment. In 2024, his efforts were recognised when he was announced as a finalist for the Qld Australian of the Year.
