Day 2: July 30th, 2025 Mulago Visit

Today we visted Mulago National Hospital which is a top level 7 healthcare facility where the majority of the pathologists are stationed.🏥🔬🧫 We spoke with a few of our key stakeholders who have been invested in Ekkaylo diagnostics since 2023. We had the opportunity to interview pathologists and cytotechnologists as we listened intently to understand the bottlenecks and barriers to care for breast cancer in Uganda. We also had the opportunity to talk with 2 women about the societal effects of a breast cancer diagnosis and mastectomy procedures.🎗️🩷The team is feeling very thrilled to learn new perspectives of this complex problem as we charter our path towards innovation. A few of today’s side quests included 2 visits to the acacia mall once for lunch and the second time for an on.callogy nail, dinner and ice cream date. We started with a bang today and are looking forward to the days ahead.
