Thomas is an American who is based in New Zealand, Volpara said. Her previous experience ranges from strategy and operations to running global sales and marketing teams, including a 20-year career at electronic health record developer Epic. Thomas is also a registered nurse.
Volpara said Highnam will now focus on leveraging the company's large mammography datasets to develop the next wave of artificial intelligence (AI) products and strengthen Volpara's portfolio throughout its customer network.
