June 23 is an annual awareness campaign for the International Women in Engineering Day (IENWED) organised by the Royal Academy of Engineering. MediSieve’s CTO, Dr Cristina Blanco-Andujar, shared her thoughts on the importance of gender diversity in engineering and how it has benefited MediSieve.

The campaign aims to celebrate and raise awareness about women in engineering and encourages more people to consider equal opportunities for all within the profession. The theme in 2020 was #ShapeTheWorld highlighting the vital role of women in finding solutions to global problems by bringing fresh, diverse and inclusive ideas. MediSieve’ CTO, Dr Cristina Blanco-Andujar, joined the conversation and talked about the potential benefits of the MediSieve’s technology. She shared that,

"The technology has the potential to bring benefit not only to patients but also to clinicians all over the world... knowing that what you do can make a difference in people’s lives is all you need to keep going.”

MediSieve is inclusive of all genders and has a diverse team. This enables the company to see situations from different points of view, leading to ideas and insights which would otherwise be missed.
