Using our skills to help cure cancer

LaunchPad Lab – Tom Cullen from Technori on Vimeo.

Imagine waking up every morning and coming to work knowing that you could make a significant impact on the world. I can imagine that this is the feeling that people like Bill Gates have as they see the success that projects at Gates Foundation have. The same goes for the those working at Twitter when they saw their platform helping push countries toward democracy. Red Cross volunteers also get that same feeling when rushing in to help save lives after a natural disaster.

I believe strongly in using your skills to do good, just as these people are doing.

At LaunchPad Lab our skills include software design and development. In working with MD Anderson in Houston TX, we discovered how we can use our talents to help one of the top cancer centers in the world find cures faster.This ability make an impact is so gratifying and we hope that we can someday be as successful as the people above.

Recently I spoke at Technori Healthcare Tech describing what we are doing. Take a look!
