Executive Assistant
Our mission is to improve lives by learning from the experience of every cancer patient. Each patient’s story has the unique potential to teach us something new about the way cancer works, and help us find more effective treatments, faster. At Flatiron, we believe that learning from the experience of every cancer patient is an imperative — it is the key to accelerating research and continuing to improve the quality of care. What stands in the way is an overwhelming technology challenge — much of the available, real-world clinical data is unstructured and stored across thousands of disconnected community clinics, medical centers and hospitals. It is a problem that we believe we can solve.
