We introduced the technologies to one of the head doctors here at St. Gabriel’s. I was overwhelmed by how enthusiastic he was about the Beyond Traditional Borders Program. He would like to have a constant communication with the program, and absolutely loves the idea of working together. The Doctor said, ”I had absolutely no clue how much you all were working. This is amazing!” He especially liked the multidisciplinary approach of BTB, in which students from all areas of study come together to create solutions to real global health problems.
“No wonder you are so effective… so many great minds all coming together!”
He stated two major reasons he wants to work very closely with BTB:
1. “You all are globally oriented and tomorrow’s future. Being able to see globally will change the world.”
2. “Thus, you all are trying to tackle the largest problems affecting global health (TB/malaria). Then you all focus on country specific. This is extremely effective.”
