Debi Willis is a software engineer, the CEO of PatientLink, a cancer survivor, a caregiver, and a long-time pioneer with a mission to elevate the position and importance of patients as equal partners in healthcare and research with valuable insight and information to share. She started her journey to empower patients by developing and patenting the first application to allow patients to send their data directly into their provider’s EHR. Her next innovation was the MyLinks application which allows patients to import their data from their healthcare providers via FHIR. Her most recent application, MyResearchLink, provides an easy path for patients to share their FHIR data, patient reported outcomes, adverse events, and a variety of risk assessments and questionnaires with researchers.
The thread that joins her mission and all her products is the belief that correct and complete data is vital to understanding and positively impacting illnesses…and that the patient is the key in aggregating, validating, and sharing that information.

James Cummings grew up in Cleveland, OH then attended and played football at Fordham University. He lives in Fairfield, CT with his wife Tara, 15 year old daughter, Ashlynn, 5 year old son, Thomas, and 3 year old son, William.
James’ career background is in UX and digital design, but after his son William was born he refocused his energy to healthcare modernization. William was born with VACTRL association (1 in 10,000 to 40,000 live births). Willam also has unassociated neurological tumors.
Prior to Williams birth, his older brother Thomas was born with Diamond Blackfan Anemia (5-7 cases per million live births); treatments include steroids, blood transfusions and bone marrow transplant. Thomas also has autism. Their older sister Ashlynn was born healthy and thriving; her only chronic health condition is congenital Anosmia (1 in 10,000 people globally).
As a result of Thomas and Williams separate serious/ongoing rare conditions, James has spent years inside hospitals and witnessed the same catastrophic problem with the lack-of-longitudinal-data: access, standardized aggregation and the incapability to leverage deep machine learning (ML) models.
Since 2021, James has immersed himself in the healthcare ecosystem and has quickly become a subject matter expert of data interoperability, policy, and health IT for public and private sectors. He has involvement with the ONC, HL7®FHIR and CARIN Alliance.
James recognizes the future of health data starts with patient/caregiver (consumer). Despite lack of education or experience, consumers have wholly-aligned Intentions and abundant Time to contribute to positive outcomes. Humanity is heading toward a future where clinical data and electronic health records (EHR) (in addition to the outpacing non-clinical data of genomic, contributed, wearable, tracking, monitoring and social behavior) will travel in the custody of the consumer.
In effort to help this behavior trajectory and inevitable future happen sooner, James’ immediate vocation is to design a process for consumers to aggregate their personal longitudinal health records (LHR), resolve standardization inefficiencies and expose data-blocking actors to influence policy. Subsequently, James will implement the replicable data commons process into the rare and undiagnosed communities to exponentially advance the disease understanding and treatment — showcasing the maximum benefit opportunity for ML tools as a diagnostic, treatment and research companion.
Rare/undiagnosed consumers are already far along the participatory and data aggregation curve, they will demonstrate the proof of future health care and research behavior.
