The Economic Officer Ariel Jahner took part in a tour of ICRC Brno with GE Healthcare to discuss opportunities for joint Czech-U.S. R&D cooperation. “The Czech Republic and the United States both have a long history of R&D and innovation. So, it is natural that many Czech universities and research centers work with U.S. counterparts to collaborate on new medical advancements to improve treatments and save lives. ICRC Brno stands out in particular as it not only cooperates with U.S. hospitals and universities, but also with U.S. manufacturers shaping the future of healthcare innovation,” said Ariel Jahner.
