Today we are eager to share some very exciting news with you all - We are welcoming our newest team member, Vinona Bhatia MD MPH on board as our Strategic Oncology Advisor! Vinona is a Medical Oncologist and Public Health specialist who formerly worked at UCSF and Kaiser Permanente, before leading efforts at Genentech/Roche to expand education and access to cancer care and diagnostics in sub-Saharan Africa. Since then she has transitioned her focus to the digital healthcare space. Her primary goal is to unblock millions of individuals from the barriers they face in accessing cancer screening and care. Dr. Bhatia shared “for years I’ve been contemplating how to improve navigation for cancer patients in order to unblock people from the barriers they face in achieving care. Now I’m thrilled to have started as Strategic Oncology Advisor at We Are Here.” Vinona will directly contribute to We Are Here’s mission to close gaps in cancer care, especially those related to access. We Are Here’s CEO, Carolyn Treviño Jenkins, speaks for the entire team. “I am so proud that We Are Here’s progress in closing gaps in access to care and clinical trials resonates with Vinona. We are so honored to have her join our team.” Welcome to the team Vinona! 💜 #oncology #cancerresearch #startup #technologyforgood #healthtech
