I’m Marissa. I solve problems
and build things.
Surgeon by training. Researcher by habit. Builder because sometimes the thing I need does not exist yet.

Built to be used, not admired.Evidence intelligence
Verastar
A literature-monitoring workspace that helps clinicians see what changed, trace the evidence, and decide what actually matters.Research workflow

A calmer place to write your next paper, keep the context around it, and move research from an interesting idea into real work.Clinician education
StatUp

I may write here.
I may not.
No content treadmill. No forced takes. When there’s something worth working through in public, it will live here.
Currently thinking about
- 01What makes an AI workflow trustworthy in actual clinical practice?
- 02How do we turn literature surveillance into better decisions?
- 03What should every physician understand about data and models?
About
Marissa Famularo, DOMy work moves between operating rooms, datasets, and half-built ideas.

I’m a vascular surgeon and limb-preservation leader, a health data science graduate student, a researcher, and an enthusiastic builder of tools for clinicians.
I care about evidence that can be inspected, AI that earns trust in the workflow, and work that improves patient care before it becomes a slide deck.
