Dr Hashir Aazh received the “Friends Forever” plaque from the World Hearing Centre in Kajetany, Poland in recognition of his scientific contributions to the activities led by the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing. The “Friends Forever” plaque is an initiative started in 1997 by Professor Henryk Skarżyński to express his gratitude to those who supported the global activities of their centre to treat various forms of hearing disorders and improve the quality of life of people with hearing impairment.
This plaque welcomes the guests of the World Hearing Centre and celebrates famous people, artists, and outstanding scientists who have particularly contributed to the creation and development of the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing.
