Sir Peter J. Ratcliffe, Nobel Prize Laureate is going to visit the University of Warsaw!

Take part in an extraordinary event, a lecture ‘Understanding cellular oxygen sensing mechanisms: adventures of a physician in discovery science’ along with the Q&A session, dedicated to students and employees of the University of Warsaw. In 2019, the British scientist, together with William Kaelin and Gregg Semenza, was honored with the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries of how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability. WHEN? 16 March 2023 r., 13:30-15:00 WHERE? Lecture Hall A+B, Biological and Chemical Research Centre, Żwirki i Wigury 101, 02-089 Warszawa BE AWARE The meeting will be held in English. We do not provide simultaneous translation. Please register for the event: register form. Abstract: The maintenance of oxygen homeostasis is a fundamental physiological challenge, inadequate oxygen (hypoxia) being a major component of most human diseases. The lecture will trace insights into human oxygen homeostasis from the founding work of William Harvey on the circulation of the blood to the...

Sir Peter J. Ratcliffe, laureat Nagrody Nobla przyjeżdża do Warszawy!

Serdecznie zapraszamy na wykład pt. Understanding cellular oxygen sensing mechanisms: adventures of a physician in discovery science oraz Q&A z udziałem publiczności, przygotowany z myślą o studentach i pracownikach UW.   W 2019 roku brytyjski naukowiec wraz z Williamem Kaelinem i Greggiem Semenzą otrzymał Nagrodę Nobla w dziedzinie fizjologii lub medycyny za swój wkład w odkrycie procesów wyczuwania przez komórki stężenia tlenu w środowisku i adaptowania się do jego zmian. Kiedy? 16 marca 2023 r., godz. 13:30-15:00 Gdzie? Aula A+B, Centrum Nauk Biologiczno-Chemicznych UW, ul. Żwirki i Wigury 101, 02-089 Warszawa UWAGA! Spotkanie będzie prowadzone w języku angielskim. Obowiązuje rejestracja przez formularz zgłoszeniowy.   Abstrakt: The maintenance of oxygen homeostasis is a fundamental physiological challenge, inadequate oxygen (hypoxia) being a major component of most human diseases. The lecture will trace insights into human oxygen homeostasis from the founding work of William Harvey on the circulation of the blood to the molecular elucidation of a system of oxygen sensing that functions to measure oxygen levels in cells and control adaptive...

Barrier distribution measurement – experiment performed at HIL

For the last two weeks, the Barrier group of HIL together with the researchers from the LNS of Catania and the University of Jyväskylä performed the experiment using the CUDAC set-up to study the influence of non-collective excitations on the barrier distributions by comparing the 20Ne+92,94,95Mo systems. Thanks to all the researchers and to the HIL cyclotron’s operators for their contribution to performing this successful experiment. The project was partially supported by the EURO-LABS (EUROpean Laboratories for Accelerator Based Sciences) grant. ...
