... After a few hours searching domains I came up with a name for my project: GlacierMD.

Over the next nine months, I would quit my job, write over 200,000 lines of code, hire five contractors, create a Delaware C-Corp, add four doctors to my advisory board, and demo GlacierMD for 12 Bay Area medical practices. I would spend $40,000 of my own savings buying clinical trials and paying contractors to enter said trials into the GlacierMD database.

On July 2, 2018, GlacierMD powered the world’s largest depression meta-analysis, using data from 846 trials, beating Cipriani’s previous record of 522.
