THE TEAM
A.Prof Celi Varol is a Urological Oncologist with specialised interest in minimally invasive cancer therapy. He graduated from University of Adelaide Medical School and Specialised in Urology.
He undertook 2 further years of sub-specialised training in Urological Oncology in Switzerland and Germany before returning back to Sydney. His clinical practice consists of robotic and minimally invasive bladder and prostate cancer therapy.
He has been performing laser surgery for prostate disease since 2003 in Australia and undertook the first minimally invasive Focal
LASER therapy trial in the Southern Hemisphere for Prostate Cancer. Even before the success of this trial he was in the development of ProFocal-Rx as treatment platform.
His ambition is to provide a global yet simple platform to effectively treat prostate cancer minimally invasively. ProFocal-Rx is being designed to treat prostate lesions and at the same time minimising the major side effects that occur with surgery or radiotherapy.
Alex Campos Electrical Engineering and Masters in Biomedical Engineering degrees and has extensive expertise in Medical Instrumentation Systems and Management.
Having commenced his career within the Nucleus group of companies within Cardiac Monitoring and Ultrasonic Hyperthermia development teams. Most recently these skills have been well utilised in his role in the growth of the startup medical device companies.
For over 30 years Alex has been directly involved in Research and Development and the creation and management of Intellectual Property. As co-author of several Patents in Instrumentation and Graphics Rendering he has mentored and managed Engineering teams purposely assembled to realise these leading edge technologies into products. Combining critical analog, digital electronics, computer systems and extensive software development experience has been a highlight of an extensive R&D career undertaken within a demanding Medical Device context.
Alex has performed executive roles as Director Design and Development, VP Engineering, Market Development Management and Engineering Management. Blending both practical engineering and commercial management expertise Alex has also held board level directorships.
Michael Stekla is an electronics engineer specializing in embedded software development and digital signal processing.
Michael obtained a Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical and Electronics Engineering with Honours 1st Class) from RMIT University in Melbourne and was the recipient of the Frank Brownless Prize and the Vice-Chancellor's list for Academic Excellence.

As a Science graduate, Tony began his professional journey in Switzerland, where he focused on designing automated analytical chemistry measurement systems. As he delved deeper into electronics design, he presented numerous papers on the subject and quickly established himself as an expert in the field.
Tony's career path then led him to bio-medical electronics, where he gained valuable experience in designing hearing implant devices, CPAP ventilators, and circulatory flow enhancement machines. He also branched out into the design of space craft and submarine test systems, expanding his expertise and skillset.
Outside of work, Tony is an avid sailor who has even circumnavigated the North Island of New Zealand. As a hobby, he enjoys designing sensors to enhance the performance of sailing yachts. Tony's passion for innovation and excellence makes him an invaluable member of the Medlogical Innovations team.
Anthony joined Medlogical Innovations in August 2019 with an impressive list of academic achievements. He graduated from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore with a Bachelor’s Degree in Biomedical Engineering, and a Master’s Degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of New South Wales, Sydney.
He had previously spent 4 years in a medical device contract manufacturing company specialising in Quality Control and Assurance as well as Production Management.
Anthony thrives on challenges, processes and development. He feels strongly about working in a field where he can contribute to society in a beneficial manner. “I’m good with numbers, have a high level of attention to detail, and love making things; which makes me perfect for a design and development Engineer role.
Biomedicine is an upcoming field and there’s great future growth there. It’s very exciting to be with a company that is creating innovative real life changing ideas into reality”.
