Have you ever wondered how new ideas can help people in the developing world? Are you interested in what Cambridge can do to help? If so, then our Development i-Teams programme is for you!
This term’s projects are:
- Assessing the market entry strategy for an open-source device that makes high-quality blood smears for medical diagnostic tests
- Bridging the gap between planetary climate models and country-level or regional policy-making
- Investigating the need for monitoring foetal movements in pregnancy
The course will run weekly at 7pm-10pm on Tuesday evenings from May 10th to June 14th, with a mixture of in-person and online sessions. Approximately 4 hours of individual work is needed each week, mostly involving gathering real-world feedback from experts in international development.
For more details and to apply for a place on a team, see www.iteamsonline.org - apply by TUESDAY MAY 3rd. Applications are welcomed from all students (undergraduates and post-graduates), post-docs and staff, as well as all members of the Centre for Global Equality - anyone with an interest in how technology can make the world a better place for the world's poorest.
