Our doctoral researcher, Roman Gańczarczyk, MSc, together with Prof. Renata Rybakiewicz-Sekita from Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University and Prof. Eryk D. Głowacki from CEITEC in Brno, has investigated the stability of P3HT, an organic semiconductor used in bioelectronics. The researchers have demonstrated that, when exposed to light and involved in the generation of reactive oxygen species, the material itself undergoes oxidation and gradual degradation.
On 22 September, the new laboratory of the Microelectronics and Photonics Competence Centre was officially opened at the Centre for Advanced Materials and Technologies CEZAMAT of the Warsaw University of Technology.
How many people touch the same door handle or light switch, or hold the same handrail or grab pole on a bus each day? Researchers from the Department of Chemistry and Polymer Technology at the Faculty of Chemistry, Warsaw University of Technology, have developed an antibacterial polymer composition – a material that can limit bacterial growth on the surfaces of components made from it.
Karol Abratkiewicz, PhD, from the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology has published a book entitled “Introduction to Multidimensional Nonstationary Radar Signal Analysis Using Fourier Transforms”. The publication combines theory with practical applications, organises knowledge previously scattered across different sources and presents the author’s own problem-solving methods.
Natalia Izdebska took the first place and Adam Król the second place in the tenth edition of Falling Walls Lab Wrocław. This international competition brings together students, early-career researchers and professionals who present ideas for addressing major problems and future challenges. Natalia and Adam will represent WUT at the global final in Berlin.
Can you explain your research in just a few minutes? That's the challenge facing contestants in Three Minute Thesis® (3MT®), one of the world's leading science communication competitions. This year marks the third edition of the competition at Warsaw University of Technology, and for the first time we're joining forces with the Medical University of Warsaw. More disciplines, more groundbreaking research, more excitement. What's in store this year?
