Written by Reed Robinson | Apr 4, 2018 8:42:59 PM

Cathy Skinner says, "Twenty years ago, cancer came to my house" when her dad was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer. His cancer journey inspired her to launch the digital health platform called Thrivors with co-founder Eric Hoffman in 2016.

Thrivors™ is a customized mobile platform that supports cancer patients in real-time with research-based tools (exercise, nutrition, mindfulness, community and education) that help them navigate side effects from cancer treatment and improve quality of life.

For Thrivors, 2018 is off to a great start after participating in the Launchpad Digital Health accelerator program in San Francisco.
