Planned date: 9-12 July 2024 | Place: Clinical and Didactic Center at the Medical University of Lodz + online (pre-learning)
In a world of fast expanding global science, success accrues to those who understand how to effectively use different innovations to their advantage. The proliferation of innovations is occurring at an unprecedented pace, often outpacing the development of educational programs. Only a limited number of individuals possess the knowledge of effectively integrating innovative practices into their research endeavors.
Summer School for PhD students is a specialized and intensive program designed to provide advanced education and training in the intersection of healthcare and innovation. The primary focus of this program is to explore how innovative technologies, methodologies, and approaches can impact healthcare outcomes, with a specific emphasis on research and practical applications.
The course is designed to uncover individual views and feelings about the usage of different innovations during your clinical and develop practical perspectives and approaches to overcome problems and capitalize on opportunities. Through lectures, case discussions, and assignments, students will learn how to effectively include innovations in their career pathways.
Overall, the Summer School aims to equip PhD students with the tools, insights, and collaborative skills needed to make meaningful contributions to the evolving landscape of healthcare through innovation.
The summer school is scheduled to be conducted on-site in Lodz, Poland, within the contemporary facilities of the Clinical and Didactic Center at the Medical University of Lodz. Attendance in person is mandatory for all participants.
Pre-learning meetings take place over Teams. Because they involve active participation, discussion, and dialogue, you are expected to attend all pre-learning.

You can add up to three pages of exhibits, tables, and figures in an Appendix.
