Collaboration and trust are integral to this research.“ We work closely with some of my ex-colleagues from HSE as well. The ability to collaborate from the outside is really attractive,” Martin shares.“ We have more freedom to orchestrate such an ecosystem and we can innovate a lot quicker as a result.”
As part of this approach, the university is also partnered with Open Plan IT, a UK-based social enterprise that specialises in open-source healthcare
