MEDICINE
A unique insight into the realities of a career in healthcare
IgnitED Medicine
It’s active from the start — young professionals take vital signs, practise suturing, scrub and gown up for clinical sessions, and simulate real emergency response scenarios. They visit a working medical practice, spend a morning in the local environment collecting samples for a live bacteriophage research project, and explore how the layout of cities affects public health.
Alongside core clinical experience, young professionals take on two healthcare related challenges: designing sustainable healthcare solutions and developing AI powered tools for patient care. These challenges build toward a final Friday innovation lab, where attendees team up across disciplines to fuse their ideas into new ambitious healthcare products.
Across five days, we engage with medicine not only as a career path, but as a complex, evolving system — practical, ethical, environmental, and deeply human.
