On 1-3 September 2022, Medical University of Lodz had a pleasure to host 40 participants of the international project  EIT Health From Scientists to Innovators for Industry (SCI FI), members of the consortium, alumni and other visitors from the whole of Europe.

This year’s project is the second edition of a 3-month programme intended for young researchers, including doctoral and post-doctoral students. The aim of the programme is to convey sought-after knowledge and skills expected in industry thereby facilitating the transfer of young innovators to industry and the implementation of innovative solutions in the market.

The consortium, with the Medical University of Lodz as its leader, is composed of 17 European partners including not only top-ranked universities but also such representatives of industries as Boehringer Ingelheim, Roche and Philips. The project is coordinated by Marcin Ciszewski DPharm, the Head of  the Acceleration Projects Section Innovation and Technology Transfer Centre MUL.

What is waiting for the participants is a 3-month period filled with online training, tasks, webinars, meetings and the final event organised in Vienna on 4-6 December 2022.
