A religious tattoo from mediaeval Nubia
23-10-2023…20 km from the modern town of Karima. Between 2012 and 2018, a Polish-Sudanese team from the PCMA UW headed by Prof. Artur Obłuski investigated a mediaeval (7th-13th century) Christian monastery at the site as well as four cemeteries within which hundreds of graves are present. The human remains are currently studied by bioarchaeologist Dr Robert J. Stark (PCMA UW) and his colleagues, who are investigating the provenance of the local populati…

A way to reduce carbone dioxide
20-10-2023…he methodology can be used to design new two-dimensional metal–organic frameworks or other materials that will allow more efficient conversion of CO2 to methane and ethylene or other fuels and chemical raw materials. Such artificial conversion of carbon dioxide is essential both to reduce its emissions and to pursue sustainable development, threatened by fossil fuel depletion and their non-renewability. Publication details: Osella, S., Goddard, W….

On 11th October, the representatives of the German university met with the authorities of the University of Warsaw. The conversation was focused on the ongoing cooperation between the universities in such fields as Slavic studies, history and archaeology. The possibility of new common projects was also discussed. The delega…

Innovative chemical sensors

It involves a one-step self-organisation of the block copolymer in solution in the presence of inorganic salt directly during the deposition of the material on the substrate. This process allows for very rapid and efficient production of oxide coatings that consist of nanowires with a well-developed active surface, which is essential in, among others, sensor applications. The results of the publ…

Therefore, the microwave-to-optical converter of quantum information can be a crucial part of a quantum network adapter – an interface between quantum computers and the quantum internet,” Dr Mateusz Mazelanik from the UW’s Centre of New Technologies explains. Enlarged atoms One known medium that can interact both with microwave and optical photons are Rydberg atoms. They can be produced via laser excitation of valence el…

Student survey on European Degree Label
04-10-2023…x university alliances: 4EU+ (with the UW as a member), Una Europa, CHARM-EU, EC2U, EU-CONEXUS and Unite!. In cooperation with central and local authorities and accreditation bodies, the consortium will test options to facilitate the issuing of joint degrees and remove existing regulatory obstacles. The consultation process will also involve European academic centres outside the consortium, allowing for closer international cooperation and dialogu…

UW in the “Horizon Europe” programme
29-08-2023…(NCP) of the National Centre for Research and Development provides up-to-date data on the participation of individual institutions in HE projects. According to the latest statistics, the University of Warsaw remains the national leader in terms of the number of ongoing projects. Participation of the UW in the EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme: participation in the implementation of 64 funded projects, coordination of 13 funded projects, mor…

“Nature” article on invasive tree species
24-08-2023…ns is based on the study, where the researchers used a unique, global-wide tree dataset, to explore how the diversity of native forests, human activities and the environmental conditions modulate invasions of tree species. The publication was prepared by an international team of researchers. One of the co-authors is Prof. Bogdan Jaroszewicz from the Białowieża Geobotanical Station, University of Warsaw. The scientists found that anthropogenic…

New mechanism of genome folding

Within these meta-domains, specific gene promoters and regulatory elements are paired together, even though they are located tens of TADs away as measured along the chromosome. The genes associated with these meta-loops encode important neuronal determinants, including those engaged in axonal guidance and adhesion. “Remarkably, meta-loops show a high degree of…
