About Robin

For-Robin President and Founder Kate Rittenhouse-Olson (right) with company senior scientist.

Dr. Rittenhouse-Olson's Sister, Robin, and the Company

My sister, Robin, developed breast cancer at age 26 and sadly died 5 years later at 31.  This was 35 years ago.

I was already a doctoral student at the time of her death, and 2 things helped me through this time.

The first was that Robin had already accomplished so much, she was a counselor and helped teenagers through their life's problems.  She had a special knack, she perfected tough love before it became a buzz word. She knew when to be kind, when to be tough, when to laugh and when to show empathy. She needed to know that she made a difference before she died and the letters and visits came that made her realize that she had.

The second thing that helped me was that I was preparing to fight this foe, learning to fight breast cancer. Robin made a difference in my mission as well, a personal mission adds so much to the fight. 


Now is the time to stop curing mice and embark on a mission to get this monoclonal antibody to clinical trials!
