The institutions launched the Institute in February of this year in order to make University of Memphis a center of technology and research.
Memphis-based Good Shepherd Pharmacy reportedly recognized blockchain as a means to retrieve unused medications from cancer patients and pass them on to economically disadvantaged patients who would not be able to regularly afford them.
The REMEDI project (REclaiming MEDicine) will divert valuable medication into the hands of patients who would not otherwise use it.”
The Institute will host an event to attract blockchain experts and enthusiasts to discuss Good Shepherd’s proposed initiative.
