אודות פרק זה
In Episode 9 of MEDICUS – the podcast, we’re talking to two scientists about what makes for a perfect collaboration. In modern translational science, new breakthroughs more often that are the product of a multidisciplinary and multi-institutional collaboration. And these collaborations are at their most successful when it is not just the expertise that is complementary but when the people within the team gel well. So, in this episode, two researchers who worked on a project that could make a significant impact on the lives of patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia, tell us how in this project, everything—even a pandemic lockdown—helped turn this into the perfect collaboration.
