Waze upended the world of navigation when it took the approach of blending basic mapping data with crowdsourced feedback on the best routes, annoying traffic and other road conditions. Now, one of the founding employees of Waze is applying a similar concept to the world of healthcare.

StuffThatWorks, an Israeli startup that has built a platform for people look up various health conditions, and then contribute their own experiences and treatment approaches while researching what others have done, has raised $9 million in a seed round from Bessemer Venture Partners, 83North, and Ofek Ventures.
