After effective dispatches in Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland and France, CURIA was dispatched in India in April, where it has acquired than 70,000 dynamic clients in 90 days.

“At the point when my closest companion and guide was determined to have malignant growth, we went through his treatment venture and had questions. We looked for answers on the web and here it turned into all around very certain that this data isn’t not difficult to track down. This is the experience of millions of individuals determined to have disease.

The calculation matches patients with the most comparable other malignant growth profiles and the talks are encoded by blockchain.

Discussing malignant growth turning into the ‘Failed to remember Big C’ in the midst of the pandemic, Bhardwaj said that cases have gone undiscovered, therapies have been postponed and psychological well-being of disease patients who have needed to separate has decayed. “The application served a genuinely necessary asset for patients who have had physical checkups dropped or experienced diminished admittance to treatment coming about because of the pandemic. The application helped patients from the psychological wellness viewpoint, coordinating with the most comparative patients to one another so they could share encounters secretly,”
