Monday Shoutout: PatientsLikeMe
Shout out to PatiantsLikeMe. @patientslikemeinc ‘s mission is to improve the lives of new patients through new knowledge derived from real-life experiences.
PatientsLikeMe started with one patient, Stephen Heywood, who was diagnosed with ALS in 1998 when he was 29. His brothers, Jamie and Ben did everything they could to slow Stephen’s disease. They became citizen scientists, harnessing the power of any and all information they could. Today, PatientsLikeMe is the world’s largest integrated community, health management and real-world data platform.
Through PatientsLikeMe, a growing community of more than 830,000 people with over 2,900 condition share personal stories and information about their health, symptoms and treatments, with a goal to improve the lives of all patients through shared experiences.
