Sympto Health

This project was about a survey tool that allows cancer patients to note their symptoms and side effects of therapy. I built APIs for a provider-side platform for nurses and doctors to gain more insight remotely between clinical visits. To conduct a usability study, I raised money from top investors and was awarded a grant from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine.
