About Stacy Tessler Lindau
I am a practicing physician and scientist with 20+ years experience leading research and innovation funded by NIH, the U.S. Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute and others. In the lab, I am working on supportive care interventions (CommunityRx - a low-intensity, high scale social care intervention) and helping to preserve and restore sexual function for women after cancer (the National Cancer Institute-funded Bionic Breast Project is developing an implantable neuroprosthetic device to restore sensation and mitigate pain after mastectomy). I am a successful impact entrepreneur and serial founder or co-founder, including NowPow, LLC, MAPSCorps 501c3, STEAMe, LLC, and the Scientific Network on Female Sexual Health and Cancer, 501c3. I am an alumna of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Clinical Scholars Program (University of Chicago and an Aspen Institute Health Innovators Fellow and have served the advisory boards for both of these high-impact programs. I am a 2023 Chicago Moth Story Slam winner and was recognized in 2024 on Forbes 50 over 50 Innovators list.
