New academic year inauguration at MUL
29th September 2017 was a red-letter day in MUL academic calendar. Auditorium 100 of Medical University Didactic Centre was full to the brim with first-year students as well as academic teachers, researchers and administrative staff.
This year’s guests of honour included: Governor Zbigniew Rau, Hanna Zdanowska, the Mayor of Lodz, Rectors of local universities, representatives of the Ministry of National Defence, the General Staff of Polish Armed Forces and uniformed services, representatives of Chamber of Physicians, Polish Pharmaceutical Chamber and Main Chamber of Nurses and Midwives.
New students took the formal university oath which was followed by the matriculation ceremony for each faculty.
Prof. Jarosław Drożdż gave an inauguration lecture on „Modern diagnostics and treatment in cardiovascular diseases”
The 1st Degree Award of the Minister of Health was presented to Natalia Lewkowicz MD, PhD for her study on “Neutrophilia and t effector lymphocytes regulation by CD4CD25 Tregs in health and in selected pathologies of oral and periodontal mucosa”
Prof. Radzisław Kordek, Rector, also thanked the retirees-to-be who completed their work for the University in 2017.
As usual, an amazing performance by the University Choir, led by Prof. Anna Domańska, was an exquisite complement to the ceremony. The audience could enjoy the choir’s spell-binding interpretation of the uniquely selected repertoire.
