Brigham Hyde
Current Position
Title: Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer Company: Atropos Health Location: New York (publicly available)
Professional Background
Brigham Hyde is an accomplished healthcare technology entrepreneur and data science leader with 15+ years of experience building businesses at the intersection of real-world evidence, clinical decision support, and artificial intelligence. With a PhD in Clinical Pharmacology from Tufts University School of Medicine and a bachelor's degree in chemistry from Northeastern University, Hyde has consistently focused on democratizing access to high-quality, timely evidence for clinical decision-making. His career trajectory reflects a deep commitment to bridging the "evidence gap"—the reality that approximately 70% of clinical care decisions lack sufficient personalized evidence to guide treatment choices.
Hyde's entrepreneurial journey began at Decision Resources Group, where he served as Chief Data Officer before the company was acquired by Clarivate for $900M in 2020. He subsequently held leadership positions at Eversana, where he established the Data & Analytics business unit as President, and at Symphony AI, where he led investment in and co-founded Concert AI, an oncology real-world data platform that achieved a $1.9B valuation. In August 2022, Hyde became CEO of Atropos Health (founded in late 2020 alongside co-founders Saurabh Gombar and Nigam Shah), securing a $14M Series A led by Breyer Capital. Under his leadership, Atropos has grown to become a leading provider of research-grade real-world evidence at the point of care, culminating in a $33M Series B in 2024 to scale AI-driven evidence generation.
Beyond his executive role, Hyde maintains academic affiliations as research faculty at MIT Media Lab and adjunct faculty at Tufts University School of Medicine, positioning him at the nexus of innovation and evidence-based medicine. His combination of clinical pharmacology expertise, entrepreneurial success, and deep involvement in the real-world evidence ecosystem makes him a distinctive voice in healthcare innovation.

Communication Style
Tone: Professional, visionary, solution-oriented with pragmatic grounding
Recurring themes: Real-world evidence, evidence gap in healthcare, AI-driven clinical decision support, democratization of evidence, personalized medicine, data infrastructure, regulatory frameworks for healthcare AI
Notable positions: Strong advocate for AI-driven automation of evidence generation; position that infrastructure now exists to bridge the evidence gap; emphasis on federated networks and data privacy/security in evidence generation; belief that evidence should be readily available at point of care for all patients, not just research populations
Hyde communicates as a thoughtful technologist blending clinical credibility with entrepreneurial vision. His writing—exemplified by "Dear Real World (Data)"—balances reflective analysis of healthcare's current limitations with solution-oriented optimism about technological possibilities. He avoids both hyperbole and excessive skepticism, instead grounding arguments in concrete capabilities (ChatRWD®, GENEVA OS™, Atropos Evidence Network) while positioning them as catalysts for systemic change. His vocabulary reflects both clinical precision and accessibility, making technical concepts comprehensible to diverse stakeholder groups (clinicians, researchers, payers, technologists). Across podcast appearances and interviews, he demonstrates consistent messaging around three core themes: (1) the magnitude of the evidence gap problem, (2) the sufficiency of current data infrastructure to solve it, and (3) the role of AI in automating personalized evidence generation. His communication style emphasizes collaboration and partnership—frequently highlighting co-founders and multiple stakeholder groups—rather than singular visionary narrative. This reflects his experience building consensus across healthcare's fragmented ecosystem.
