The University of Crete has become the first academic institution in Greece to join Stanford University’s SPARK Global programme.
SPARK is an international initiative that helps turn scientific discoveries into clinical practice and supports innovative solutions that benefit patients.
The official entry was marked on 30 October at an event at the School of Medicine on the Voutes Campus in Heraklion, with keynote speaker Professor Kevin Grimes, Co-Director of SPARK at Stanford University School of Medicine. The event also outlined the outlook for translational research and innovation at the university.
