SPEAKERS

Prof. Marcin Drąg is a professor at Wrocław University of Science and Technology (Poland) & Professor Adjunct at SBP Medical Discovery Institute (USA).

 

 

 

 

 

Joanna Rossowska is an assistant professor at Hirszfeld Institute of Immunology and Experimental Therapy  (Poland). Her research focuses on the development of new anticancer immunotherapies which aim is to reactivate potent host antitumor response through reprogramming the hostile tumor environment.

 

 

 

 

Prof. Mounir Tarek is a Senior Research Director at the CNRS-Université de Lorraine, recipient of a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Paris in 1994. He joined the CNRS after a four-years tenure at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (Gaithersburg Maryland USA) following three years tenure at the University of Pennsylvania). His research focus and expertise lies in the study of cell membranes transport processes. It involves the use of computational chemistry methods to study membranes, proteins, ion channels and membrane transport proteins. Over the last    few years, he studied many aspects of electroporation of cell membranes subject to high electric fields.

 

 

Prof. Saulius Šatkauskas is a professor in Department of Biology, Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas (Lithuania). He is also head of Biophysical Research Group. His research lies in the fields of membrane electropermeabilization and   sonoporation in cells and tissues.

 

 

 

 

 

Jan Azarov is a Chief Researcher at the Department of Cardiac Physiology, Institute of Physiology, Komi Science Centre of Ural Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences and a Professor at the Department of Physiology, Pitirim Sorokin Syktyvkar State University (Syktyvkar, Komi Republic, Russia). His research is concerned with myocardial electrical heterogeneity, its mechanism, ECG expression and functional significance – specifically, a role it plays in arrhythmogenesis.
