"I am excited to be part of this revolutionary solution that Vivante Health has launched, and this is just the beginning. The power of predictive analytics will further enhance GIThrive so we can anticipate the course of disease, allowing interventions to be tailored for each individual more accurately and more proactively," said Hodgins.
