Over 180 sessions were participated by over 1200 speakers representing  business, politics, self-government, international organisations as well as the world of science and health care. Prof. Ireneusz Majsterek, the Head of MOLecoLAB  and Tomasz Pytel MA, MOLecoLAB LAB Manager, as the representatives of MOLecoLAB Centre of  Molecular Studies on Civilisation Diseases Medical University of Lodz got engaged in the official and unofficial discussions in search of innovations with the focus on the sustainable development of the health care sector. The exchange of valuable experience, opinions and knowledge led to fresh and new outlooks on the key aspects of Polish economy development.

Another i.e. 22nd edition of #CEBioForum2024, an international event for the biotechnology industry, was held in Warsaw on 26-27 March 2024. The Conference connected the representatives of government administration, scientific institutions and broadly understood BioBusiness. The list of exhibitors at “Life Science In Lodz”  included The City of Lodz Office, the Lodz University of Technology and the University of Lodz as well as MOLecoLAB Centre of  Molecular Studies on Civilisation Diseases Medical University of Lodz. Invaluable biotechnological knowledge of innovation, research and development could be gained in a conversation with the Head of  MOLecoLAB, Prof. Ireneusz Majsterek. New ideas and business opportunities could be discussed at plenary sessions as well as at individual B2B discussions and meetings i.a. with Tomasz Pytel, MOLecoLAB LAB Manager.

The seminar on European funds for horticulture growers and farmers was held at the Centre of Culture and Art in Skierniewice, under the patronage of the Marshal’s Office in Lodz on 30 November 2023. MOLecoLAB Centre of Molecular Studies on Civilisation Diseases Medical University of Lodz was invited as one of the special guests.

On 21 November 2023, the employees of MOLecoLAB Centre of  Molecular Studies on Civilisation Diseases visited the Faculty of Electrical, Electronic, Computer and Control Engineering at Lodz University of Technology. Thanks to the invitation from Łukasz Szymański, Eng. PhD, prof. of TUL, we participated in the conference which promoted the implementation of Medical Data Bank (MDB). Medical Data Bank was established as the result of the collaboration between the researchers from  the Institute of Polish Mother’s Health Centre in Lodz (ICZMP) and Lodz University of Technology, with the participation of Inovatica. The conference provided an opportunity  to learn about the virtual platform for collection of digital data on the Institute of Polish Mother’s Health Centre in Lodz and Lodz University of Technology. Facilitated access to digitalised, anonymized and structured data is a huge advantage in the development opportunities not only for medicine, but also for basic disciplines (chemistry, biochemistry, physics).

The first effects of the MEDICA fair in Dusseldorf are behind us but we are only gaining momentum and we do not intend to stop … and its only the beginning. Business meeting with regard to development and joint R&D projects with Wojciech Bachta, CEO at Software House Da Vinci Studio, and  Michał Polak, Chief Technology Officer at Software House Da Vinci Studio.
