The Institute organizes the first Hydrogen Exhibition in Poland

Wystawa Wodorowa

From March 16 until June 15, 2024, the Hydrogen Exhibition organized by our Institute was opened at the Poznań International Fair. This is the first exhibition of this type in Poland open to the general public. The aim of the project is to build a bridge between science and society in the context of the role of hydrogen in industry and the economy and to raise awareness of its importance in a "green" and sustainable future. Over 200 square meters of exhibition space contains a wealth of information and exhibits, thanks to which exhibition visitors have access to reliable and up-to-date knowledge and can see why the energy transformation is so important for the security of our planet. As a part of the event, an information and consultation point was also created with access to the opinions of experts in the field of hydrogen.

We support Poznań Science Slam

Poznań Science Slam 2024

On April 20, the "Poznań Science Slam 2024" conference will be held at the Biocentre of the Poznań University of Life Sciences. This event will enable science enthusiasts and young science students from all over Poland to develop their interests and create a unique opportunity to present their own research, analyses and innovations.

The Institute of Molecular Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences took honorary patronage over this unique conference. The winner of the main prize will be able to complete a research internship at our Institute, and another outstanding speaker - as part of our special award - will be able to take part in this year's Scientific Workshops "Summer with Helium".

We wish all conference speakers successful speeches.

New scientific activities at IMP PAS

National Science Centre

In the last quarter of this year, two scientific activities have received funding from the National Science Centre under the MINIATURA competition. The originators and implementers of these projects are:

  • Dr. Eng. Roman Strzelczyk:
    "Explanation of the origin of triplet centres in glassy carbons using low-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance studies" (implementation period: 12 months)
  • Dr. Eng. Adam Mizera:
    "Research on carbon nanocomposites of quantum dots with conductive polymers for applications in electrochemical supercapacitors" (implementation period: 12 months).

In the first case, the scientific activity involves conducting preliminary research, while in the second one – a research internship is organised.

We congratulate the beneficiaries on their success and wish them good luck in implementing their projects.

A Polish Picnic in Slovenia

Landscape

On September 17, 2023, the Polish Community Picnic, organized by the Polish Embassy in Ljubljana, took place in the picturesque Pokljuka region in Slovenia. This unique meeting was opened by Krzysztof Olendzki – Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Poland in Slovenia. Dr. Magdalena Wencka from IMP PAS actively participated in the organization of the event and conducted scientific workshops on the occasion of the 550th anniversary of the birth of the great Pole and scientist – Nicolaus Copernicus. The main theme of the shows was "super cold forms of gases" available both on our planet and in space. Dr. Wencka also took part in a radio broadcast by Slovenian Radio SI during which cultural and linguistic similarities and differences between Poland and Slovenia were discussed.
