Bio-Tech-Med Nutrition Interdisciplinary Team Training
Besides tackling their disease, patients and experts experience other disease-related challenges. They face challenges that can be technical, medical, nutritional, or a combination of all. In order to tackle these challenges, we place the patient in the middle.
Together students from the medical research master SUMMA, master programmes of Biomedical sciences (UU), master programmes of the TU Eindhoven, and master programmes of Nutrition and Health (WUR), work in groups of 4-5 students to find solutions to tackle the challenge patients face. Combining the competencies from different students will create high potential patient centered solutions.
This course aims to develop interdisciplinary competences by cross-boundary (research) collaboration between students with a medical, biomedical, nutritional and engineering background.
