The Uluguru mountain grasshopper (Cyphocerastis uluguruensis): Dear Jim, Greetings, and How are you? I just watched yesterday evening your great ISSIP San Jose State Management and Information Science course final presentations - Jim Spohrer & all - From Disposable Coursework to Compounding Innovation https://youtu.be/oODnh450MbM ... and found it edifying and instructive, a great example of ISSIP mentoring by you, and with great affirmative conversations, which could be relevant for World University and School WUaS in multiple ways. And so I'm writing to inquire please whether we might explore further your mentoring me and World University and School and the WUaS Corporation ... and with mentoring as a 'strategic asset.'

What happens when you apply advanced quantum science and AI to life sciences?

You could gain a greater understanding of human biology and health at the molecular level.

That’s the idea behind our new REPLIQA initiative.

transfer from the British isles with a 6 years' bachelor of medicine bachelor of surgery degree MBBS (say from the University of Bristol) to Stanford Med?


"A UK-trained doctor (MBBS) would generally not transfer, but rather apply for residency training or take USMLE exams as a foreign medical graduate."
