Book the date for Respiratory Days 2016 (and more…)

Published

The 5th annual “Respiratory Days” conference will take place at Bumbálka, Labská nr. Špindlerův Mlýn, Krkonoše Mountains, on September 7-9, 2016 (Wednesday to Friday).

Biošrot, Parašrot and Physiošrot will take place at the same place, starting September 10, 2016.

A list of publications has changed.

Martin Rozanek become an Associate Professor

Published

Today afternoon, two of our colleagues became associate professors (“doc.” degree—it has NOTHING to do with Microsoft Office documents :-) ). They defended their habilitation theses at a meeting of the Scientific Committee of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering. They are Martin Rožánek (in the picture on the couch), a member of our NVT; and Jana Vránová, a statistician closely cooperating with us in research.

Congratulations!

RESPIRATORY DAYS 2015

Published

The 4th annual “Respiratory Days” conference will take place at Bumbalka, Labská nr. Špindlerův Mlýn, Krkonoše Mountains, on September 9-11, 2015 (Wednesday to Friday). All topics related to respiratory care and research in respiratory techniques and medicine are welcome.

If you consider an active participation (i.e. having a presentation or a lecture), please contact any member of our team as soon as possible.

The program for RDs 2015 is presented here:  Pozvánka na SVK Respirační dny 2015

Attendance at the conference including accommodation and food is free of charge if you deal with respiratory care or research in this field; otherwise, a conference fee of CZK 2 150.– applies (includes the accommodation, food, the book of proceedings, social events and all the conference services).

Here are the proceedings from the last Respiratory Days in 2014: Proceedings-Respiratory-Days-2014.

(For members of FBMI CTU only: The conference immediately precedes the BioŠrot and ParaŠrot training courses starting on Saturday, Sep 12, 2015.)
