Derek Cooper helps health technology clients leverage new imaging data

One of the things I really appreciated about UMSI was the multidisciplinary nature of the MSI program. It is an invaluable experience because in the workforce you won’t be stuck with a team that has one focus and similar backgrounds. UMSI really helped me to see the value in those differences and how to work together effectively. The UMSI classroom really exposes you to that environment and way of thinking.
