Twenty six US health care senior managers arrive in Dundee tomorrow to familiarise themselves with the University of Dundee's internationally reputed work in life sciences research. The group, all pursuing a Masters of Business Administration in health services management at Washington University, are from an area in the United States which has been identified as a possible future centre of life sciences.
Deputy Principal of the University Professor David Boxer said: "We are delighted to welcome such a large group of extremely well qualified visitors from this sector in the USA. It is a mark of Dundee's success in the biomedical sciences that the Biocentre is being used as an international model in this way."
The group will meet Professor Sir Philip Cohen in the Wellcome Trust Building to see his latest research projects.
The group will also hear presentations on biotechnology and health care management in Scotland. ENDS
