Welcome to the first issue of “Inside Medicalchain”, a monthly newsletter written to update our community on the progress of our project. To continue with Medicalchain’s ethos of openness and transparency, we shall illustrate the achievements and challenges that we have faced over the past month, and explore the exciting developments coming up over the next few weeks.
