“For the first time, we will have a president from a post-communist part of Europe that has been separated from the rest of Europe and the US by the fall of the Iron Curtain exactly 30 years ago. Nevertheless, this part of Europe has historically contributed significantly to the development of medicine,” says Professor Dick, the current European president, who reviewed the level of medicine in our country.
