Survivorship deserves just as much attention as treatment.

As survivorship continues to grow, so does the need for emotional support, advocacy, personalized information, and whole-person care.

Cancer care doesn’t end when treatment does.

As Cancer Survival Improves, We Must Transform Survivorship Care As cancer survival reaches 70%, ACS experts Arif Kamal, MD, and Nicole Stout, DPT, highlight the need to transform survivorship care.

Meet Christopher Louden, our Vice President of Data Science.
As PotentiaMetrics’ Vice President of Data Science, Chris leads the development, architecture, and data management behind Capire360, transforming complex oncology data into meaningful, personalized insights that help support people facing cancer.

“I am dedicated to arming people with cancer with sufficient information to amplify their voices in decisions about their treatment.”

Chris brings a rare combination of deep statistical expertise, technical innovation, and healthcare experience to our mission.
His background includes:

- Extensive experience at the intersection of machine learning and oncology — building sophisticated statistical models designed to uncover meaningful real-world insights.

- Expertise in data science, biostatistics, programming, and analytics across both healthcare and information technology industries.

- Nearly a decade as an independent statistical consultant serving organizations in medical and IT fields.

- Previous leadership roles including Data Scientist at HP and Senior Biostatistician at the University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio.

At Ardynn, Chris’s work helps power the personalized treatment decision support behind Capire360, ensuring that data becomes more than numbers on a screen. It becomes information people can use to ask better questions, better understand their options, and feel more informed throughout their cancer journey.

We’re grateful for Chris’s innovation, precision, and commitment to helping people feel more empowered in their care decisions.

What does a cancer advocate actually do? 💚

Advocacy means more than answering questions. It means helping people feel informed, supported, and less alone through every part of the cancer journey.

From explaining complex medical information to preparing for appointments, coordinating care, and supporting treatment decisions, advocacy is about making sure your voice stays part of your care.

You deserve support that sees the whole person — not just the diagnosis.

Meet Jerry Henderson MD MBA FACP CHCIO, our Chief Medical Officer.

As PotentiaMetrics’ Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Jerry Henderson leads the clinical data registries and analytics platforms that power Capire360, helping transform complex real-world outcomes data into meaningful support for people facing cancer. He also works closely with Ardynn’s advocacy team, ensuring advocates have the tools and insights they need to guide members with confidence and clarity.

Jerry’s passion for improving cancer care is deeply personal and grounded in decades of frontline experience.

“For over a decade, I ran the cancer-only ER at MD Anderson, where I witnessed countless patients blindsided by side effects of treatment. When I became Director of Informatics, I was appalled by the staggering costs of treatments that frequently failed to extend or enhance life. When I encountered the Capire360 model, I recognized its potential to help patients. I’ve committed to enhancing its application and making it a standard of care.”

Dr. Henderson’s leadership journey includes:

- Practicing oncologic emergency medicine physician, bringing firsthand insight into the realities people with cancer face every day.

- Former Chair of the Informatics Governance and Inpatient Clinical Informatics Committees at MD Anderson.

- Founder of the world’s first Oncologic Emergency Medicine fellowship program.

- Creator of the Zero-G software program, earning MD Anderson’s Innovator of the Year Award in 2013.

- Advanced training in healthcare leadership and value measurement through Rice University and Harvard Business School Executive Education.

At Ardynn, Jerry’s work reflects a powerful belief: people deserve clearer information, more personalized support, and care decisions informed by real-world outcomes, not uncertainty alone.

We’re grateful for Jerry’s vision, compassion, and relentless commitment to improving the future of cancer care.

Some things about cancer don’t get talked about enough.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, emotional, exhausted, or simply not like yourself, you are not alone.

At Ardynn, we believe support means caring for the whole person, not just the diagnosis. 💚

A rare cancer diagnosis led Ashley McCrary to rethink how she wanted to live her life, with more intention, purpose, and presence.

Her story is a powerful reminder that even in the middle of uncertainty, many people find clarity in what matters most: meaningful relationships, helping others, and making each day count. 💙

Living intentionally doesn’t mean ignoring the hard moments. It means choosing purpose alongside them.
