Eliza Adams

Chief Operating Officer Clarify Health Solutions

Last Reviewed: September 27, 2026

Executive Summary

Eliza Adams is Chief Operating Officer of Clarify Health Solutions, the San Francisco healthcare outcomes company whose Meridian platform analyses patient journeys and referral patterns for health systems. She was named in that role in the leadership team Clarify announced in May 2026, when co-founder Todd Gottula became chief executive. Before becoming COO she was Clarify’s Chief of Staff and Vice President, Corporate Strategy. Her background is unusual for an operating executive: she trained as a neuroscientist at Stanford, where she held a Bio-X graduate fellowship.

Career Highlights

• Chief Operating Officer of Clarify Health Solutions, listed on the company’s leadership page and introduced in its 1 May 2026 leadership announcement.
• Previously Chief of Staff and Vice President, Corporate Strategy at Clarify Health.
• Stanford Bio-X Graduate Student Fellow (2017) in the Neurosciences program, working with Marc Tessier-Lavigne and Liqun Luo on how adult brain circuits change after sensory deprivation and injury.

Professional Journey

Adams came to healthcare technology from laboratory science. At Stanford she was a graduate student in the Neurosciences program and, in 2017, a Bio-X Graduate Student Fellow advised by Marc Tessier-Lavigne and Liqun Luo. Her research looked at the structural and molecular basis of functional plasticity in activity-defined circuits of the intact adult brain, using genetic and viral tools with a whole-brain clearing and analysis pipeline to follow how circuits adapt after sensory deprivation and injury.

She then joined Clarify Health Solutions, which was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in San Francisco. Stanford Bio-X records her there as Chief of Staff and Vice President, Corporate Strategy, a role that sits close to the chief executive and cuts across the whole company.

On 1 May 2026 Clarify named co-founder Todd Gottula as CEO and introduced a new leadership team with Adams as chief operating officer, alongside a chief revenue officer, chief customer officer, chief financial officer, chief technology officer and others. The company now describes itself as a healthcare outcomes company that works with more than 60 health systems, with its economics tied to measurable results. A month later, in June 2026, Clarify completed the acquisition of Loyal Health, a patient activation and scheduling platform, to connect its referral intelligence with tools that move patients into care.

Education

Stanford University’s Bio-X program records her as a graduate student in Neurosciences (Bio-X Graduate Student Fellow, 2017). No first-party source was found confirming the degree conferred or her undergraduate education.
