We invite everyone to visit the exhibition Analogue vs Digital that can be seen in the display cases by the entrance of the Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) History Museum next to the Great Hall (16 Dzirciema iela, Rīga).
Analogue systems have been increasingly and rapidly replaced by digital ones, and we are experiencing a digital transformation. This transformation makes our work processes and communication easier, saves time, gives us more freedom and enables us to become more competitive. We are therefore able to do much more than before.
The programme of various conferences and events of this year’s Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) Research Week, which takes place from 27 to 31 March, tackles issues related to the communication, perception, and storytelling around climate change.
