Young scientist days

Our young scientist days are an integral part of the ongoing patient and family involvement in our paediatric gastroenterology team.

Feedback

“The team put in a lot of effort to make an interesting and meaningful patient day, both for the children and the parents. It was very important for me to have the opportunity to meet other parents who experience the same difficulties as I do, and it was so to see how quickly the children got along together and felt comfortable with each other. Both me and Assaf are looking forward to the next patient day.” - Assaf's mum
“The patient day was fun, I liked meeting other people and I liked the fun games there. I mostly enjoyed that one game when I saw my own cells and I liked one with colours. I felt formal when I wore a scientist lab coat. The other children were really nice too and it was fun!” - Assaf
“The Patient day was a wonderful experience! I can honestly say it was a highlight of my time in the team. I loved meeting and chatting with everyone who attended (they are, after all, the reason we do what we do) and seeing how much fun they also had. I hope that there will be many more!” - Fliss, Bioinformatician
