Efficient management of the University’s development in the field of research requires verification of actions and ongoing correction of implemented initiatives. To meet these needs, a special academic unit was created, composed of recognized specialists from foreign medical universities and industry entities. The main objective of the Council is to provide an impartial evaluation of the University’s activitieś as well as to improve its further dynamic development. During the meetings, the speakers will share their experience and discuss issues related to their current scientific activities.
