The NTMC team is made up of members focused on a number of seemingly unrelated disciplines. The diversity of experience and fields of study of individual members reflects the multidisciplinarity required by the topic of telemedicine. Within it, we range from medical management, through software engineering, conceptual design, user experience to social and palliative care. The team will thus cover the entire spectrum of project activities - professional and administrative.
