• A startup that turns videos into games gets backing from Mark Cuban and opens a round for regular investors at $250.
• Executives and founders of Uber, Facebook and Apple are bullish on this wellness app that you can coinvest in at $1.15 per share.

Cuban proposed that the government offer free medical school for all students for less than $2.5 billion a year. According to him, there are fewer than 25,000 medical students in the United States, and despite the high costs of medical education, the total expenses per student are less than $100,000 a year, except for the most expensive schools. He also suggested that the cost of medical education should be limited to less than the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) increases, and eventually, the investment in making medical school free would quickly pay for itself.

He goes on to say that making medical school free would eliminate a significant financial barrier, increasing the number of applicants. The added benefit would be that the quality of applicants would also go up, as not only the wealthy or those willing to take out loans would pursue medical school. Naturally, this could improve diversity as well.

Cuban also mentioned that a lot of venture capital (VC) money is available to use artificial intelligence (AI) to change medicine and health care. He argued that future doctors don’t need to depend on the NIH for support. Instead, smart venture capitalists and companies could pay for these students’ medical school costs in exchange for them working for the company for five years after graduation. This would be cheaper than hiring them after they finish their residency.
