From Pinterest to Glioblastoma Research
Today on the show, I welcome Vikram Bhaskaran, and Dr. Rohan Ramakrishna (Chief of Neurological Surgery at New York Presbyterian) live in-studio to talk about Roon, their intriguing new cancer navigation platform for patients and caregivers. Roon is personal to Vikram as his whole career shifted from Pinterest executive to caring for his Father when he was diagnosed with ALS. Roon claims to be "the most supportive place online for people navigating complex health conditions, starting with Glioblastoma." so we power-test how that holds up against unmet patient needs. Rohan is only the second neurosurgeon I've had on the show, so, as a brain cancer survivor, I naturally asked him all sorts of pointed questions like, "What's it like to touch someone's brain?" These guys are the real deal with core compassion for empathy in medicine and helping patients in need access what they never knew they needed. Enjoy the show.
