Faculty are able to learn from each other’s experiences and partner where appropriate in these interactive meetings. Each session focuses on specific regions, highlighting faculty experiences and projects through quick elevator pitches on their works. These events foster faculty collaboration, and the sharing of innovative healthcare insights from around the world.
