Founders' Note
Mihir Shah
"When you are looking at a disease like cancer from a family member's perspective, it takes a little while to learn and truly digest the fact this is a global scale challenge, one that's not being addressed and not going away anytime soon! Once the realization set in that it's not going to be an easy problem to solve is when I told myself that we have a real ballgame at hand."
Matthew Campisi
"Being touched personally by breast cancer certainly provides the passion and motivation to work hard for a solution. But when you realize the global breadth of the problem, you realize it's about so much more than yourself. It is an honor and a privilege to have this opportunity to be part of something with such global impact."
