Amalthea Trust working at Kyambogo again

In February we once again began sending volunteers to the Biomedical Engineering Diploma course at Kyambogo University, Kampala, after an absence of some twelve months. Terry Timmons (Manchester University NHS FT) ran a two week long session on Medical Gases and Anaesthetic machines, and Jas Bilkhu once again brought to bear his own excellence with Ultrasound machines. The emphasis, as ever, was on the practical aspects of maintenance and repair, and the students were fully engaged and as appreciative as ever. We hope to be returning with some other volunteers in the Autumn to address some other areas of the Kyambogo BME curriculum.
