Like Netflix's 'Diagnosis,' 'Chasing the Cure' Is Showcasing the Power of Medical Crowdsourcing

Each Thursday, she anchors Chasing the Cure, a 90-minute broadcast where people suffering from undiagnosed, misdiagnosed, or uncured medical mysteries are linked with medical doctors to help them crowdsource answers to their rare and debilitating conditions.
