Sophic Synergistics has worked with our startup companies since the beginning of TMCx, and this partnership broadens the way they will be able to provide human-centered design and human factor resources to the digital health and medical device companies we bring into the program,” said Halvorsen.

This is a very exciting time in Houston, particularly when you consider the investment that is being made by TMC in resources such as TMCx and the innovation corridor. It is unprecedented! It represents a turning point in how we think about health care and the people it is meant to safely and effectively serve,” said Sophic Synergistics Founder and CEO Cynthia Rando, CHFP. “We feel strongly that the future of our health care system is reliant on products and innovations that are focused on human centered design.
