About

Nucleate PATH: Inside Careers in Life Sciences Nucleate Australia is thrilled to partner with COHORT Innovation Space and the Griffith University Student Guild to host our upcoming event – From Stethoscopes to Startups at the Gold Coast. Medical students and early-career clinicians are an integral part of healthcare, yet many are seldom exposed to the world of startups, digital health, and MedTech. Join us at our introduction to clinical entrepreneurship, designed with the intention of initiating change. This is your chance to engage with incredible clinician-founders about navigating the world of clinical practice and entrepreneurship. This evening will explore: Insights into how clinicians can transition into or consult for startup roles without leaving medicine behind.
