About
Dave deBronkart, known online as "e-Patient Dave," is a pioneering advocate for patient empowerment who is today focused on how AI is transforming what power is within reach for both ordinary citizens and super-users. A 2007 survivor of a near-fatal kidney cancer, he helped his own cause by being highly engaged and connecting with other patients online. He went on to become a global keynote speaker about patient access to health data and medical records at 800 events in 26 countries; at one point his TED Talk was in the top half of most-watched talks in the world. His current project is a new patient group on Reddit called Homebrew Health AI.
