Outstanding Poland's veternarian honoured in Germany
Poland's Professor Ryszard Badura has received honorary doctor's degree from the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Badura, a retired veterinary doctor is highly valued expert in veterinary surgery, former rector of the Agricultural Academy in Wroclaw and dean of the Veterinary Medicine Department. 2010-09-03 09:05 In a survey opening in the Suwałki region Polish geologists found 13,000 years old permafrost. Is an European natural phenomenon, and the coldest rocks in Europe - said Polish Geological Institute (PIG) experts at a press conference in Warsaw. Experts indicated that it is the only such object in Central Europe. "In Suwałki region, we found permafrost similar to one in Siberia or Alaska" - said the PIG spokesman Mirosław Rutkowski. 2010-09-03 02:56 Researchers from the Institute of Agrophysics PAS in Lublin intend to operate a small industrial production line of organic rapeseed oil with high health properties. The oil, solely for salads, will be called "Drop of health" and will be very rich in antioxidants, which can be found in preparations sold in pharmacies - according to project leader Prof. Jerzy Tys from the Lublin PAS institute. 2010-08-30 01:42 The Team of young scientists from the Department of Biophysics, Jagiellonian University (UJ), has made a spectacular discovery explaining previously not understood mechanisms related to cellular system of energy transfer and protection against free radicals. Results of the team’s work, considered extremely significant for understanding the processes of energy transfer in biological systems, have been published in one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world - "Science." 2010-08-27 04:29 Genetic profile of a woman from the late Neolithic period, i.e. approx. 4 thousand years ago, has been reconstructed by researchers from the Department of Forensic Medicine, Pomeranian Medical University (PAM). Geneticists are examining the remains found in a tomb in Czelin (Western Pomerania). "After several, confirmed tests we found human from four thousand years ago. We have no doubt about it" - stated Andrzej Ossowski, study leader at PAM in an interview with PAP. 2010-07-29 01:53 The temperature in Central Europe in the coming decades will grow faster than in most other parts of the world. In Poland in the twenty-first century the climate will be warming twice as fast as in the second half of the twentieth century - according to research of the project "Impact of climate change on environment, economy and society", conducted by the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMiGW).

European Centre for Geological Education to be established in Chęciny
Field studies, courses for students and lessons in natural sciences will be held at the European Centre for Geological Education, which will be established in Chęciny. Agreement for the project implementation was signed at the University of Warsaw (UW) by representatives of UW, Świętokrzyskie voivodship, Kielce district and commune of Chęciny.
2010-07-27 11:43 Plants have a special kind of memory, which is an expression of certain form of intelligence - discovered the team of scientists headed by Prof. Stanisław Karpiński of the Department of Plant Genetics, Breeding and Biotechnology, Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW. 2010-07-27 11:00
22nd UMCS Geographic Expedition to Spitsbergen began
On June 17 began an expedition of scientists from the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin (UMCS) to Spitsbergen. UMCS researchers led by Dr. Andrzej Gluza from the Department of Meteorology and Climatology will carry out meteorological, hydrological and hydrochemical, glacial, soil, and active permafrost layer measurements, and monitor the dynamics of fluvial and periglacial processes. 2010-07-06 07:23 Flowers delight not only with magnificent colours and odours, but also with shapes of crowns. They are of interest not only to florists, but also botanists, who are looking for, inter alia, factors responsible for the exotic and unusual shapes of the petals. In theirs studies the researchers are using the latest techniques in molecular biology and genetics and the methods of computer simulation. Magdalena Raczyńska, PhD student at the Department of Biophysics and Plant Morphogenesis, University of Silesia, conducts the research project on the growth and orientation of cell division in the development of flower petal. 2010-04-26 03:16 << < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 > >> |
