patient empowerment
Parul is an award-winning patient leader and advocate on patient empowerment and cancer care. Premier organizations, including President Biden's Cancer Moonshot, the American Cancer Society, the World Economic Forum, and Stanford Health Care, invite Parul to share her unique experiences as a BRCA1 carrier, cancer survivor, author of "New Job. New Baby. New Cancer.", caregiver, and former genomics executive.

Parul brought a blend of authenticity and resonance to the Stanford opening keynote which so beautifully reflected our mission of "healing humanity through science and compassion, one patient at a time." She spoke for, and to, our patients, families and our caregivers. Thank you for continuing to inspire our work.

Parul is much more than an inspirational cancer patient and caregiver. She is a highly educated professional who combines her business expertise with her personal experiences to help inspire others.

Parul is an articulate, courageous, and giving professional, mother, and cancer survivor with the gift of expressing what she has learned in a way that inevitably helps others in a similar situation. She distills hard lessons into invigorating life directions. She is clear-eyed about the challenges, but positive about the directions needed to deal with them. She encourages and inspires.
