Cancer Maps website (1)

Hi there,

Thank you for taking a moment to learn about the CancerMaps project.

My name is Mac Thiessen. I am a practicing medical oncologist and researcher focused on improving how people living with cancer find and use online information.

CancerMaps was founded to create online cancer resources grounded in lived experience and organized around the patient journey.
