As dusk falls, ICTER carries the light. Breakthrough in the diagnosis of eye diseases.
The eye is nature’s unique “window” that opens in two different ways, leading to entirely different realms. On the one hand, it allows us to observe the external world, and on the other, it enables us to peer inside – into the depths of our bodies, spotting the signs of developing diseases. Unfortunately, more than 280 million people worldwide suffer from

A laureate of the Foundation for Polish Science solves a puzzle of the quantum spin Hall effect
A virtually exact Hall resistance quantization to a value reliant only on the Planck constant h and electron charge e in two-dimensional systems under strong magnetic fields not only demonstrated the role of topology in condensed matter physics but also played a crucial role in redefining S.I. units in terms of constants of nature in 2019. Furthermore, the accuracy of metrological relevance has also been achieved in the case of

“Nauka dla innowacji” (“Science for Innovation”) – a series of podcasts with the winners of the International Research Agendas programme
On 21 February, the first interview with Prof. Tomasz Bulik from the Science and Technology Center in Particle Astrophysics (AstroCeNT) and the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Warsaw was broadcast. In the podcast, Professor Bulik explains how gravitational wave astronomy has moved from a laughing stock to become a great new tool for scientific insight. Listen to the podcast with Professor

From gene expression to behavior – a novel role of SRF protein controlling gene expression in the regulation of social behavior.
Doctor Matylda Roszkowska and Anna Krysiak, M.Sc. together with the research team working under the supervision of Professor Katarzyna Kalita showed a novel link between disturbances in the process of retrieving the information encoded in genes, and abnormal social behavior in the adulthood. – Neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorders, ADHD, or schizophrenia belong to the complex group of disorders

CANVAS PROJECT TO FAST-TRACK RESEARCH ON IMMUNE THERAPY FOR NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER
The main objective of CANVAS is to significantly raise the scientific potential and gain new research tools, which will contribute to the progress of research on the therapy of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) initiated by prof. Natalia Marek-Trzonkowska at ICCVS. A vital part of the project is a joint pilot study, which will allow to select an optimal research model for the assessment of

Alleviating autism: one symptom at the time
Doctor Alicja Puścian and the team conducting research under the supervision of Professor Ewelina Knapska at the BRAINCITY Center of Excellence for Neural Plasticity and Brain Disorders at the Nencki Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences showed that experimental therapy targeted at the specific symptoms of autism is not only possible, but also effective. – Autism, or more
