Incubators of Research Excellence
- The Incubators of Scientific Excellence are research centres in which excellent researchers, together with teams made up of staff from the University of Wrocław and researchers from around the world, will jointly lead major scientific projects.
- The aim of the Incubators is to measurably increase scientific achievements in research areas that have less international recognition at the University of Wrocław. As a result of the competition, 8 Incubators were selected and established at the Faculties of the University of Wrocław.
Slavicus
Incubator Manager: prof. dr hab. Bożena Rozwadowska
Scientific Excellence Incubator “Slavicus” – Centre for Corpus and Experimental Research on Slavic Languages.
The central goal of the Center is to unite theoretical, computational and experimental linguistics in comparative research on Slavic and Baltic languages. More info here.
Digital Justice
Incubator Manager: dr hab. Karolina Kremens, LL.M.
Digital Justice Center conducts interdisciplinary research on the impact of new technologies on criminal justice systems. More info here.
Centre for Interdisciplinary Research into Health and Illness
Incubator Manager: prof. dr hab. Dariusz Galasiński
The Centre for Interdisciplinary Research into Health and Illness is the first centre at a Polish university with an explicit aim to do research in health humanities and the social sciences of health and illness. More info here.
Meta Research Centre
Incubator Manager: dr Bartosz Helfer
The Meta-Research Center analyzes research methods and practices to understand how to reduce biases in science, and thereby provide more reliable and safe conclusions from important scientific research. More info here.
DNA Repair and Replication Research Center
Incubator Manager: dr Karol Kramarz
The center studies the properties of SUMO using a model organism – the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. More infor here.
Being Human
Incubator Manager: prof. Craig Roberts BSc, PhD
The aim of the project is an attempt to answer key questions in humanities concerning art, morality, and human relationships, using empirical tools offered by ethology, psychology, and related fields. More info here.
Solar and Stellar Activity
Incubator Manager: dr hab. Arkadiusz Berlicki, prof. UWr
The main goal of the Incubator is to achieve significant progress in the field of non-equilibrium plasma spectroscopy and modeling of flares and other active phenomena observed on the Sun and stars. More info here.
Centre for Simulation of Superdense Fluids
Incubator Manager: dr Pasi Huovinen
At the Superdense Fluids Simulation Center, scientists will be working on creating models of the evolution of this fluid, the quark-gluon plasma, from its creation in nuclear collisions to its ultimate decay into individual hadrons. More info here.
