Who wouldn't want their phone or laptop battery to function reliably for a long time? Meeting these expectations, however, is not that easy. For this, one requires materials with specific properties. Researchers from the Faculty of Chemistry of the Warsaw University of Technology and the National Institute of Chemistry from Slovenia are already looking for them.

For the past few months, a group of students of the Faculty of Architecture has been working on the "Water Asylum" project. Their efforts have resulted in an installation that can be viewed in the immediate vicinity of the ZODIAK Pavilion.

Can scientists find inspiration for their work in popular culture? Yes, of course! This occurred in the case of a WUT Faculty of Physics project. George Lucas' films inspired researchers to develop a solution that can help improve the vision of the elderly.

A new point has appeared on the map of WUT scientific circles – "CHIMNEY"

Imaging cells is a daunting task due to their size and transparent interior. Holographic tomography proves helpful, as well as digital models and real phantoms of 3D cells developed by WUT researchers.

Researchers from the Faculty of Chemical and Process Engineering of WUT have developed a technology that will enable universal and less expensive production of hydrogen. They used molybdenum disulphide produced in impact reactors and carbon nanomaterials.

Even a mild case of COVID-19 can affect the activity of the autonomic nervous system, also a few weeks after infection – this is the main conclusion from the research carried out by researchers from the Faculty of Physics of the Warsaw University of Technology and doctors from the Hospital of the Ministry of Interior and Administration in Warsaw.
