As a founding member of the European EMS Leadership, the European EMS congresses, and the Global Resuscitation Alliance, Professor Lippert has dedicated over 25 years to the field of emergency healthcare. He has been instrumental in the reformation of emergency healthcare in Copenhagen, including the development of a state-of-the-art integrated dispatch solution for emergency patient care.
