Sean has had a long and successful career developing and commercializing medical products in the areas of diagnostic ultrasound and medical robotics, stemming back to 1992 when he joined Acuson Corporation, the global leader in medical diagnostic ultrasound. From 1992 to 2000 Sean worked for Acuson and served as Director of Engineering from 1996 to 2000. From 2001 to 2005 Sean served as Vice President Engineering of Siemens Medical Solutions, Ultrasound Division (previously Acuson). In 2005 he joined Hansen Medical, the leader in flexible robotics for medical applications, progressing from Senior Vice President of Engineering to Senior Vice President of Operations. In 2009 he left Hansen to join a very promising startup, Restoration Robotics Inc., a company using image-guided robotic technology to perform hair restoration, and then in June 2010 Sean transitioned from InnerVision Medical board member to President and CEO. Sean holds a B.S. and a Ph.D. from the University of Ulster, Northern Ireland.

Tim J. Davies, Founder and Chief Science Officer, Director

Tim Davies founded InnerVision in mid-2002 and has led the scientific innovation of InnerVision’s proprietary technology since its inception. Over the past 20 years Tim has been involved in the design and creation of state-of-the-art sonar technology and the many applications of that science. Tim has held senior positions in advanced sonar R&D for applications in the sub-sea and defense sectors, with Lockheed Missile and Aerospace, Royal Ordinance UK PLC; and for a short period of time in the early 1990s, Tim applied his acoustic expertise in the development of medical imaging (that endeavor was truncated, as the cost of super computing was too expensive for commercial viability). He holds a Bachelor of Economics from the University of Calgary with majors in Applied Mathematics and Non-Linear Dynamic Systems. Tim is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the Society of Molecular Imaging, and the Association of Ultrasound and Medicine.
