Elections for Rector

Dear colleagues! Dear students!

On 23 November, a very important event took place at our university - the Rīga Stradiņs University (RSU) Constitutional Assembly voted on the position of rector and decided in whose hands the leadership of our University would be for the next five years.

I am truly touched by the faith that has been shown in me and for the unanimous support of my candidacy!
