Our Founders Story

MiCode was established by Professor James Ohene-Djan.

At our core is a focus on sustainability, diversity, and inclusivity. These values and our lived experiences have helped guide our innovative approach to simplicity in healthcare solutions.

James, (Professor of Computer Science at Goldsmiths University), and his sister Louise, (Professor of Pharmacy Education at University College London) were long term carers of their brother, Tony, and mother, Betty. Their complicated needs meant there were touch points across the whole spectrum of the health and social work teams.

Driven by his problem solving and visionary mindset, James teamed with healthcare insiders to design simple solutions to address their complex problems.
