As an engineer in the medical device industry, I would offer that few people are in a better position to come up with those ideas than yourself. You have years of clinical experience, surely you've come across areas of practice that could be improved by technology or existing technology ripe for enhancement? Companies I work with pay good money for clinical input towards product development. If you want to get good input from a technical audience such as ours, I suggest describing your biggest pain points (no pun intended) in the profession. |

What aspects of your specialty are the most expensive, the most time-consuming, the most error-prone, and/or the most dangerous?
Alternately, you can look at the delivery systems for improvement. Are there people who lack access to professionals with the needed skills, equipment, or supplies? Or who can't access them when they are needed.
I would strongly recommend you take a look at this book if you haven't already: https://www.amazon.com/Disciplined-Entrepreneurship-Steps-Su...
The book is quite awesome and there are two EdX courses that go with it that I'd also recommend: They are called Entrepreneurship 101 and 102. See: https://www.edx.org/course/entrepreneurship-101-who-customer...
Finally, there other online courses (Coursera or EdX) that specifically cover new product development in the Medical Device space.
