Alicja Jaworska appointed as Co-Chair of the VR/AR Association Healthcare Committee

We are thrilled to have Alicja Jaworska join the leadership for our Healthcare Committee and help guide our community.

 I am so excited to co-chair the VRARA Healthcare committee. I am passionate about bridging the gap between technology and healthcare. Virtual and Augmented Reality has a lot of potentials to revolutionize many aspects of healthcare, from patient care to medical education. By introducing different vendors, products, and innovations through our monthly meetings, I hope we can share expertise and inspire each other. I look forward to meeting future healthcare leaders and helping prepare the roadmap of the healthcare VRAR system.
