COVID-19 Advisory Team to the President of the Polish Academy of Sciences

From June 30, 2020 to December 31, 2022 I was a member of the interdisciplinary COVID-19 Advisory Team attached to the President of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Our task was to monitor the course of the COVID-19 epidemic in Poland, analyze and predict its possible scenarios, and make recommendations. We also established contacts with similar teams in other countries in order to exchange experiences.
