During last weekend, a part of our team used experience in caving and single rope technique. We repaired windows that are accessible only from outside of the building. As we run a “Licensed course for instructors of speleology and speleoalpinism”, we have all the necessary equipment at the faculty.
And the weather was good, the wind was calm and the building was high enough to have fun.

The CoroVent emergency lung ventilator, developed in response to the shortage of ventilators during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, differs in its innovative design from practically all modern ventilators used in clinical practice. It does not use proportionally controlled valves and does not use flow feedback control during inspiration. The design of Corovent uses fast, long-life, electrically controlled valves that were not commercially available just a few years ago.
You can read about the unique solution, which enables the production of ventilators from relatively widely available and inexpensive components, here.
