10 Years Later: A Health Tech Investor Reflects on Her Early Days at StartUp Health
Ten years ago, Irem Rami became one of the first Fellows to join StartUp Health. In her role she helped vet the very first companies to join our community. That was back when it seemed very audacious indeed to have a goal of supporting 1000 healthcare startups. A few years later and we’ve now welcomed 500 startups into the community and are still going strong. In that time Rami moved on, went to business school, and is now a principle health investor at Norwest, a $3B multi-stage fund.
We called up Rami up for this StartUp Health NOW podcast episode to give us that decade look back – you know, it’s hard to understand where you’re going if you don’t know where you came from. She’s got a unique perspective on the durability of the StartUp Health vision and what it means to chase the same seemingly impossible dream for more than 10 years.
We also wanted to hear Rami’s advice for health innovators seeking to raise funds in this difficult market. She evaluates opportunities on a daily basis and had some sage advice to share for our listeners.
Enjoy the episode.

Debunking Menopause Hormone Therapy and Breast Cancer Risk | Dr. Mindy Goldman
If you’ve ever heard that menopausal hormone therapy can increase the risk of breast cancer, this new health report may surprise you. In this bonus episode, women’s health and menopause management expert Dr. Mindy Goldman sheds light on the complex world of Menopause Hormone Therapy. We explore pivotal insights from the Ester Trial, revealing potentially safer transdermal estrogen. We talk about a fascinating Today article that uncovers the impact of statistical manipulation on reported studies, especially concerning the relationship between breast cancer and hormone therapy.Dr. Mindy Goldman shares her expert opinion on how estrogen alone might be safer than we thought, and why synthetic progesterone requires a closer look. We also discuss the controversial use of testosterone in women, the challenges with federal laws, and FDA-approved options for improving libido.Dr. Goldman is a Clinical Professor in the Department of OB/GYN at UCSF and the Director of the Gynecology Center for Cancer Survivors and At-Risk Women. She’s a nationally recognized expert in the management of women’s health issues, including menopause, for women with cancer or at high risk. She helped author guidelines for the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) and has won several notable awards.Discussed in this episode:Dr. Mindy’s work with breast cancer survivors as an OBGYNCommon myths of menopause hormone therapyA discussion on the Esther Trial and recent menopause data release in TodayRisks and safety of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone therapyFDA-approved drugs for women’s sexual function Gender disparities in medical research Hormone therapies and other treatment options for high-risk populations such as cancer survivors Menopause symptoms in breast cancer treatment Hormone therapies, medications, and lifestyle strategies as post-cancer treatment options Dr. Mindy Goldman’s professional experience as a menopause advocate combining breast oncology with gynecology“It's important to realize that there aren't national guidelines that talk about the use of hormones in people at high risk for cancer, which includes people with a family history, people who have had prior biopsies with atypical change, people with genetic mutations, and people with cancer. The standard of care has always been not to use hormones in those situations because the thought was that hormones could increase the risk of breast cancer or increase the behavior of breast cancer.” - Dr Mindy GoldmanRelated to this episode:Resources and episodes on Perimenopause & Menopause Menopause health report (Dec 2023): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37847875 ESTHER Study: Learn more.Dr. Goldman’s story: www.joinmidi.com/post/mindy-goldman Dr. Mindy Goldman on LinkedinMidi Health: www.joinmidi.com Menopause book recommendations:
