About Us

We are a small partnership of researchers and members of the public in the United States who are interested in the rapidly evolving science of the new coronavirus and COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease-2019). We are looking to convene a small group of individuals who might be interested in exploring ways to help the general public get more involved in this research.

I am a patient advocate and cancer survivor in the San Francisco Bay area. I believe in engaging people in their own health journeys through education, information access and person-centered design. My goal is to build bridges between science, industry, policy and people to improve research and delivery of care.
