Biomedical science · Product thinking · Digital craft
I combine health sciences, scientific communication, product strategy and AI-assisted execution to make difficult information easier to understand, use and act on.
MY WORK IN THREE MOVEMENTS
EDUARDO SILVA / AMSTERDAM
A scientist’s eye. A product maker’s hands.
THREE POINTS OF ENTRY
BACKGROUND
Biomedicine
Health-sciences foundation
Biotechnology
Postgraduate training
Marketing
Audience & positioning
IVD & MedTech
Diagnostics, POCT & clinical training
BEHIND THE WORK
A closer look at three choices that shaped real products. Select a project to see what changed between the problem and the result.
The question
How do you teach a diagnostic workflow without turning it into a disconnected list of steps?
My decision
Connect identification, specimen, device, quality, result and action into one learning flow.
The experience
A practical POCT learning system with scenarios and applied reasoning.
SELECTED WORK
Open a case to see the challenge, my reasoning, key product decisions, science or technology behind it, and the current outcome — not just a feature list.
9 projects shown
An operational POCT training system built around the full testing chain — identity, sample, device, result and action — with Foundation, Academy, simulated bench cases and professional challenges.
poctutor.com
A visual, interactive Dutch A1 course for Brazilian learners built around real-life themes, pronunciation, listening and active practice — 13 A1 chapters, one full free tasting chapter and A2 in development.
amsterduacademy.com
A GLP-1 education and self-tracking product that combines a 3D digestive simulator, routine logs, food context, weekly summaries and appointment-ready reports — with a free core and optional Premium.
digestiaglp1.com
An exam-focused learning product for Brazilian candidates preparing for the Dutch Basisexamen Inburgering A1, combining speaking, sentence completion, KNS and reading practice in one structured system.
treinoa1holanda.com.br
An interactive immunology learning system that makes immune responses visible through dynamic simulation, guided scenarios, classroom flows and retrieval practice.
immuneguard.base44.app
A multilingual Amsterdam guide that combines locally reviewed editorial content, visible source/review status and practical tools for neighborhoods, transport, cost of living, planning and city discovery.
amsterdu.com
An interactive hemostasis learning environment that connects the classic coagulation cascade, the cell-based model, laboratory screening tests and clinical reasoning.
coagcascade.base44.app
A working MedWrite workspace that brings projects, research, staged writing, quality review, career tools and a practical manual into one medical-writing environment.
Experiments & labs
Smaller learning experiments that show how I test new interaction and teaching ideas.
An experimental Dutch phonetics and perception lab with a phoneme atlas, minimal pairs, guided daily practice, memory review and advanced browser-audio controls.
PROFILE
My strongest work happens in the space between disciplines. I can read the science, identify what matters, structure information, design the learning or decision path, and turn that reasoning into a working product.
I start with the mechanism, user and context before choosing the interface.
I use structure, interaction and visual logic to reduce cognitive load.
I prefer tangible prototypes and iterative improvement over abstract presentations.
CAPABILITIES
Three connected areas that reflect the work I actually do.
Evidence-based digital tools, clinical education, medical content systems and health-tech product concepts.
Interactive learning experiences that turn abstract rules, mechanisms and processes into things people can see and practice.
Problem framing, information architecture, workflows, documentation and iterative UX improvement, using AI-assisted and no-code tools where they add leverage.
JOURNEY
Each step moved me from supporting existing products to structuring, explaining and building new ones.
Started inside the healthcare diagnostics ecosystem and learned how products, professionals and patients connect.
Worked with diagnostic products, training and scientific support, including hands-on education for healthcare professionals.
Moved deeper into clinical education, physician support and international medical-device environments.
Applied scientific reasoning to medical writing, structured content and multidisciplinary communication.
Expanded from communicating information to designing interactive systems that help people understand and use it, with AI as part of the build workflow.
EXPERTISE
Original notes on how I approach recurring problems across health tech, scientific communication and learning products.
I work at the point where health-science knowledge has to become a usable digital product. That means translating evidence, safety boundaries, user needs and product logic into interfaces people can actually understand and use.
Explore expertiseScientific communication is not about making information sound simpler. It is about preserving what matters while changing the structure, language and level of detail so the right audience can use it.
Explore expertiseI design learning products for subjects that are difficult because they are abstract, procedural or hard to practise alone. The product has to do more than display content: it has to create a useful practice loop.
Explore expertiseFIELD NOTES
Short essays from problems I actually had to solve — not generic commentary about AI or product trends.
The easiest way to make a health app look more impressive is often the fastest way to make it less responsible. With DIGESTIA, I deliberately stopped short of diagnosis, treatment advice and individualized predictions.
A beginner can communicate successfully and still make mistakes. That sounds obvious, but many automated language tools behave as if every article, preposition or word order error deserves the same penalty.
The classic coagulation cascade is useful, but it becomes a bad teaching tool when students are asked to treat it as if it were the whole physiology of hemostasis.
