The University of Minnesota (UMN) and UK students taking part in the summer school have had a busy first week! On Wednesday, they got to visit the brilliant Mayo Clinic in London and learn about the work that happens there. Some of the group took the opportunity to see some sights (with only slight disappointment at not seeing the King like last year’s group). Thursday started with a tour of the amazing Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, where they got to see the different parts of the hospital, and to hear about how it was designed with the patient and staff experience in mind. The group was really impressed with how the space has been set up to foster collaboration and enable future innovation. In between visits, the teams have been hard at work on their portfolio company research and analysis in preparation for their first dress rehearsal at the end of the week. A massive thank you to the Mayo and Papworth teams for welcoming us and answering all our questions! #SummerSchool #GradStudent #Cambridge #LifeSciences

It was a pleasure to host the group on a tour of our facilities. The group were really engaging, asking lots of questions and sharing insights from the US healthcare system. It made the visit a joy for myself and my colleagues Jane Speed and Colin Glen. 🤗
