Without a map you are lost.
We can solve this now.

The Cancer Patient Map
There’s no map of cancer to guide patient care. This project will change that.
In the current reactive care system, doctors diagnose and try to fix problems after they happen, which is hard to do. In a new predictive care system, doctors have new tools that provide a map that shows where their patient is going, so that they can make decisions that chart the best care pathways and help avoid problems before they happen.
This project is important and urgent because we cannot build effective solutions to prevent treatment resistance without being able to accurately monitor health and treatment response changes in patients.
The Cancer Patient Map Project aims to shift cancer care from reactive care to predictive care — to get ahead of this disease and chart a course to control it. We’ll create this map of cancer and make the tools available to everyone through their smartphone.
Join hundreds of patients and their supporters who are helping to revolutionize personalized medicine for cancer care.
If you’re a cancer patient at any stage or a family member or friend, you can contribute to the map here.
