Ben revisits the application of innovation to deliver healthcare transformation – this time the merging technology with social science to reward undetectability in the fight against HIV.  We meet Mackenzie Copley, Co-Founder & CEO of SHINE, who shares his journey from a young volunteer to creating a groundbreaking app that incentivizes HIV patients to remain virally suppressed by providing financial rewards. They discuss the economic and ethical implications of this approach and SHINE's potential impact on ending the HIV epidemic.
