Imagine a platform where technology and compassionate care converge. This episode is a deep dive into that very space. We’re joined by Ani, the visionary founder of Vann, a cancer support app created from her own personal experience.
Incubated at Oxford University Innovation, Vann combines support for patients during and after diagnosis. The platform provides not only support and information for patients, but for any individual or group looking to signpost anyone who wants to understand how to manage their relationship with someone who has cancer. The app gathers data that is also used to track the impact of treatments with the possibility of giving researchers what they need know to engineer new treatments.
