  • Researcher Revealed Podcast Health Technology Spotlight
    Feb 20 2026

    A departure from my usual guests Elliot Justin is the first medical doctor I have hosted. He reveals the inspiration for FirmTech in this technology spotlight. As such our conversation centres on issues related to male sexual health, including erectile dysfunction. We discuss how he built a team of researchers around the device and how clinical research has demonstrated the device's ability to improve male sexual performance. We also explore how objective data on male sexual health has revealed implications for other aspects of male health.


    Bio: Dr. Elliot Justin, MD, FACEP, is a serial healthcare entrepreneur, board-certified Emergency Medicine specialist, and the founder and CEO of FirmTech—a pioneering company at the forefront of data-driven sexual medicine research. FirmTech’s flagship products — the Tech Ring and Performance Ring — combine sexual wellness and smart technology to help men monitor their erectile and cardiovascular health. The Tech Ring’s embedded sensors measure nighttime and sexual performance data, empowering men to track how lifestyle factors, medications, and fitness levels correlate with their erectile function and cardiovascular health. The ultimate goal: to prevent, manage, and even reverse erectile dysfunction and heart decline using personal, actionable health data. Under Dr. Justin’s leadership, it's become a groundbreaking research tool used in studies with several leading sexual medical institutions. One study, which was presented at the International Society for Sexual Medicine and European Society of Sexual Medicine, revealed that fading erections in aging men are primarily caused by venous leak rather than poor blood inflow—challenging decades of conventional wisdom. Additional studies confirmed the TechRing’s safety in overnight use across 2,700 monitoring sessions and demonstrated that FirmTech’s Maximum Performance Ring often outperformed leading ED medications like tadalafil in sustaining erections.

    Amelia hasn’t even finished her undergraduate physiotherapy degree yet and she is already presenting her research! Inspired by a lecture from a clinical researcher Amelia took direct action and successfully landed a research internship with Dr James Gavin. Listen to find out how that experience led to her wanting to do more than embed research into her career, she aims to become a physio research leader!Top 3 Takeaways1) Enthusiasm and passion will take you far!2) Inspiring clinicians to be researchers is about more than just putting it in education3) Research is more detailed that you might think.Bio: Amelia Sulch is an Undergraduate Physiotherapy Student in her final year at the University of Southampton. She has a long-standing interest in rehabilitation and particularly management of Long-Term Conditions (LTCs). I have developed a strong interest in research which was enhanced by a 10 week-internship (with a research study) exploring how community-based interventions can encourage people with LTCs to stay active long-term. This mixed methods research gave her experience in conducting a scoping review and she will be conducting the semi-structured interviews as my final year dissertation project.She particularly valued the opportunity to attend showcases and conferences to learn about the research! She is currently interested in health inequities, healthcare interventions and service improvement, particularly in the community, and qualitative research as a vehicle to identify and address the diverse needs of marginalised populations within healthcare.Her ambition is to study a master’s in public health and then complete a PhD with the aim of being a researcher and a lecturer in the future. I am looking for opportunities to get involved with research, collaborate with others. I also enjoy hearing hear about research work being conducted, please contact me if you have any opportunities available for early researcher involvement.Find Amelia online:www.linkedin.com/in/amelia-sulch-475480242Amelia’s Research:Coming soon…See the LinkedIn post about her poster presentation: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/amelia-sulch-475480242_this-summer-i-had-the-fantastic-opportunity-activity-7376939681588084736-236j?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAABFA9IcBEyY2FSUNQHrFfA-w4L5YcSeb-24Amelia is reading: The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas Resources:Dr James Gavin’s research https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/5xsmdg/doctor-james-gavin#researchThe “MoTH” study (related to her project) https://www.southampton.ac.uk/research/projects/research-project-maintenance-of-physical-activity-behaviour-moth-programmeLong Term Conditions Research Grouphttps://www.southampton.ac.uk/research/institutes-centres/long-term-conditionsCreative methods book: Creative Research Methods by Helen Kara (@HelenKaraWriter on YouTube)Find Dr Rosalynn AustinLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-rosalynn-austin-147b3980/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rosalynnaustin/Twitter: https://twitter.com/RosalynnAustinExperience the adventures Dr Rosalynn Austin takes while travelling on @tea-riffictravelsThe podcast content is the personal opinions and experiences of the researchers (Dr Rosalynn Austin and Amelia Sulch) and not that of any of their affiliated institutions.
