Until recently, if a resident of central Poland needed treatment with a lung transplant, he had to go to Szczecin or Gdańsk or - to Zabrze. Now such patients can be treated in Warsaw. However, in order for a really strong lung transplant center to operate in Mazovia, it is necessary for this center to cooperate with existing lung disease clinics and departments in the province. It was the possibility of such cooperation that was discussed at MUW.

This time, high school students were able to hear about cutting-edge cancer treatment. Dr. Leszek Kraj from the Department of Oncology UCC MUW focused on immunotherapy. This is a new method that often gives spectacular results, but can it be called the Holy Grail in oncology? - this and many other questions were answered by our lecturer in his presentation.

The webinars are organized by the Human Milk Bank Foundation together with partners, among which is our university.

The list included 2,000 universities from more than 90 countries around the world. Out of 46 Polish universities included in the ranking, MUW ranked high - in 10th position.

Wojciech Kukwa, MD, PhD, head of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology MUW, talked about what lies behind this specialty and what the work of an ENT specialist looks like.
