As part of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Programe, Ms Joanne Sultana, an Allied Health Professional studying the Chinese language had the opportunity to participate in a summer school organised at the Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Throughout the programme, Ms Sultana, as a Medical Laboratory Scientist, was exposed to the Chinese Traditional Medicine methodologies providing an entirely different way of approaching healing and alternative ways of treatment in comparison to the Western medicine.
As part of the experience, Ms Sultana enhanced her intercultural skills and also had the opportunity to visit historical and cultural sites in Shanghai.
