When Glen Peterson, D.N.P., started exploring ways to improve cancer care, his vision was audacious: to bring advanced, high-quality treatment out of the hospital and into patients’ homes. As an associate professor in the Division of Hematology at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus, Peterson saw the toll that traditional cancer care – with its endless clinic visits, hospital stays and exorbitant costs – was taking on patients. With the partnership of CU Innovations, he was able to form groundbreaking partnerships to test what’s possible in reimagining patient care.
