The Silver Medal of the European Society of Cardiology recognises outstanding contributions to the life and mission of the organization. He received the award during the 2022 ESC Congress in Barcelona. We are ready more than ever to deliver high-quality research and clinical care to heal patients!

The call is open! The IRIS courses are focused on developing skills to carry out research projects, based on a practical - problem-based approach, communication skills, developing skills in international research team building and networking, establishing enjoyable cross-discipline/cross-cultural collaboration, and encouraging researchers to publish scientific papers. An important effort of IRIS activities is to build an international network of young researchers and mentors in biomedical research, as well as to develop and support national research capacities and activities.

• How to optimize the treatment based on telemedicine monitoring?
• Can artificial intelligence predict a deterioration of patient's health?
• How to use gold-standard therapy such as beta-blockers in combination with the latest technological advances in medicine?

Watch our latest webinar to learn more about telemedicine and its use in current clinical practice with the speaker, Allan Böhm, MD, PhD., MBA, FESC.

Dr. Allan Böhm, PhD, MBA, FESC, lectures at the Turkish National Cardiology Congress on the Intelligent Monitoring Program, which we are currently launching at Premedix Clinic. You can read here how we can avoid acute medical emergencies thanks to artificial intelligence and telemedicine.

The new project Heart Under Control will through the use of digital medicine help people with hypertension (high blood pressure) manage their health without in-person doctor visits.

An integral part of the scientific work is being able to obtain research grants and publish results of your research. This year, Premedix Academy again decided to organize IRIS Summer School 2021 in Slovakia. The foreign faculty and participants from all around the world discussed and cooperated to create successful research study protocols.
