I regard my appointment to the Supervisory Board of EIT Health InnoStars as a very great distinction and at the same time an appreciation of the engagement of Lodz University of Technology in this network. This is a very important body that sets the direction of EIT Health Innostars. The opportunity to represent Polish partners is a great honor and commitment for me. I am confident that my experience in interdisciplinary research projects will allow me to effectively join the work of the Board," Prof. Albrecht said after the appointment.
