27 of our researchers will receive a total of more than 40 and a half million PLN for the realization of their projects in the recently concluded OPUS 26 and SONATA 19 competitions of the National Science Centre (NCN). Among them are scholars from the Faculty of Letters, who will receive three grants.

On May 16 and June 6, 2024, students of the UWr College for Interdisciplinary Individual Studies visited the Department of Molecular Microbiology of the University of Wrocław, where they learned about research methodologies that were new to them during a specialized microbiology workshop organized by prof. Gabriela Bugla-Płoskońska, and led by dr Katarzyna Guz-Regner and her assistants, Julia Śledzińska and Klaudia Grodzicka.

Space-time symmetries are a key component of fundamental physical theories, such as classical and quantum electrodynamics, or general relativity theory (classical gravitational field theory). The most fundamental of these are described by the Lorentz group (for a non-zero cosmological constant this generalises to the de Sitter or anti-de Sitter group), preserving the value of the speed of light c. On the other hand, if we consider the so-called Galilean limit, in which c goes to infinity, we reduce the theory in question to classical Newtonian physics, where time is absolute.
322 scientists whose projects were on waiting lists in the OPUS 25, PRELUDIUM 22, MAESTRO 15 and SONATA BIS 13 calls received funding decisions on June 7, 2024. Thus, the group of winners of these competitions increased from 452 to 774 researchers. Financing additional research projects was possible thanks to the increase in the budget […]
