RSU Academic Ball held in Olympian spirit

On Friday, 24 April, the Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) Academic Ball was held at Hanzas perons in a festive and joyful atmosphere, bringing together RSU staff, alumni, students and invited guests.

The RSU Academic Ball is one of the university’s most cherished traditions, held since 2002 and symbolically marking the culmination of the academic year. This year, the ball was held in an Olympian spirit, honouring the values of art, science and truth, as reflected in the Academic Ball’s motto Ad honorem artes, scientia, veritas.

We invite you to this month's Scientific Journal Club, featuring a presentation by acting scientific assistant Oļesja Rogoza from the research group led by Inese Čakstiņa-Dzērve at the Institute of Microbiology and Virology.

This time we will learn about TimeVault, a genetically encoded powerful tool for decoding cellular responses to make fate decisions.

We encourage more master's and PhD students to take advantage of this opportunity to gain inspiration and boost confidence for your future academic careers.
