Cardiac Institute in Tanzania: An Unforgettable Experience Empowered by the IPA Mission Scholarship
Joining a CardioStart mission to the Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute in Tanzania provided an invaluable experience in delivering cardiac care in a low-resource setting. Supported by an International Perfusion Association (IPA) scholarship, I coordinated logistics, collected patient data, and collaborated with a global team of medical professionals. This experience highlighted the critical need for cardiac care in underserved regions and deepened my commitment to contributing to similar missions in the future.
