Med&X is a Croatian biomedical non-profit that builds bridges in both directions: bringing the world's leading minds in medicine and science to Croatia, and opening the world's best institutions to Croatian talent.
Med&X is a non-profit founded by Croatian physicians and scientists working at the frontier of their fields. We bring world-leading researchers, clinicians and innovators into direct contact with Croatia's biomedical community, and we open the world's best institutions to the next generation of Croatian talent.
The exchange is reciprocal by design. Global leaders gain a foothold in a fast-rising biomedical community. Croatian scientists and clinicians gain partners, platforms and the doors that turn a promising career into a lasting one.
Read our storyI trained in Split and now work at Harvard. Med&X exists so our brilliant people can learn from the world’s best and bring that knowledge home to Croatia.

The Golden Line
Croatia has shaped medicine for seven centuries. The Golden Line is Med&X's homage to its greats — and the reason we connect Croatian and global medicine.
Walk the Golden LineThree ways to take part this year, whether you are a student, a working scientist or clinician, or a partner who wants to build with us.
Med&X runs on the generosity of people and companies who believe in Croatia's place in world medicine. Sponsorships and donations fund every internship abroad, every speaker we bring home, and every young scientist we help take their first step. For Croatians living abroad and Croatian companies, it is a way to invest in talent you can hire, partners you can build with, and a community that connects you back home, while opening the doors the next generation once wished were open.
