The ECHOES project (ExCHange Of ExpertiSe in healthcare professionals’ education) kicked off on 22 January 2024 with the attendance of all 5 partners, 8 Associate Partners, and various local stakeholders.
In this meeting, all partners contributed to the work happening across all five work packages.
The project aims to develop a free online platform that worldwide universities can use to find healthcare experts. These experts (both clinicians and academics) can register their areas of expertise on the platform. This platform will be supported by Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help universities find the exact experts they need for research and teaching activities.
