Jonas and Yaroslav participated in lectures on physical health, met former president of Karolinska Institutet Ole Petter Ottersen, they were in the audience at a defense (Carrie Tran: "Students' perceptions of interprofessional learning and virtual patients in primary healthcare") and were invited together with professor Carl Johan Sundberg, head of LIME to Generation Pep, at the castle where they met HRH the Crown Princess Victoria, HRH the Prince Daniel and Carolina Klüft.

At the end of the week both students said "I want to become a professor."

'It is important to introduce knowledge of science early in the children's mind', says Solvig Solvig Ekblad, head of the research group Cultural Medicine at LIME.
