Acino, a leading provider of high-quality pharmaceutical products and services, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) and ROEYA Training Centre to conduct training for a group of 300 young healthcare professionals on the latest gastrointestinal endoscopy techniques.
The training programme aims to provide young healthcare professionals with the latest updates in the management of acid-related diseases using modern endoscopy techniques to improve the diagnosis and quality of life of patients.
The MoU was signed by Dr. Ehab Kamal, Assistant Minister of Health for Professional Medical Education, Dr. Mostafa Ibrahim, Founder of ROEYA Training Centre and Dr. Ahmed Serag, Acino’s Egypt Country Manager.
