We exist to connect the dots across health disciplines, and to share information that gives you the agency to change the trajectory of your own health journey - wherever you are at. The health industry is siloed, confusing and means we're often in the back seat, with little to no belief in our autonomy to improve our health status. We're here to change that and to highlight the ways that you can too.

Cancer treatment isn’t one disease = one drug. It’s thousands of different stories playing out at a molecular level and yet when it comes to care, we’re still treating most of them the same way.
Padman Vamadevan and Ben Whately, co-founders of Astron Health, are rethinking oncology from the ground up. Here we explore why recurrence is such an under-addressed problem, how AI can help oncologists cut through a tidal wave of research and what it looks like to track cancer like a chronic disease instead of a binary cure-or-palliative model.
We cover:
🧬 Why two 'identical' cancers can be worlds apart biologically
🤖 How AI condenses 170,000+ research papers into actionable options
🩺 The blank space after an 'all clear' and how to fill it
📊 Longitudinal data: tracking disease drivers over time
🛠️ Safe iteration with proven drugs, supplements & lifestyle changes
