The ceremonial meeting of the Senate of Gdańsk University of Technology on the occasion of the inauguration of the academic year 2021/2022 will be held on 1 October at 11.15.

Due to the epidemic situation, just like last year, the central ceremony inaugurating the new academic year will be held in a hybrid manner. The list of direct participants of the ceremonial session of the Gdańsk Tech Senate has been limited, while all those willing will be able to take part in the inauguration thanks to the online broadcast available on the university's YouTube channel.

POLONEZ BIS Programme

city
The Polish National Centre of Science invites foreign scientists (PhD or min. 4-year research experience) to participate in a programme offering internships for residence in Poland as part of conducting research.

POLONEZ BIS Programme is co-financed by the European Commission and the Polish National Science Centre under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie COFUND grant.The first qualification begins on 15 September and will last until 15 December (next competitions in March and September 2022).

NutRedOx - network activity closing meeting

logo NutRedOx
On 19-21 September at Gdańsk University of Technology and the Radisson Hotel in Gdańsk, a meeting will be held to end the international project of the COST Action network (Cooperation in Science and Technology) with the acronym NutRedOx, whose partner is our university, and the vice-president is prof. Agnieszka Bartoszek from the Faculty of Chemistry.

The NutRedOx network brings together science and technology partners from 34 countries in Europe, the Mediterranean and the Middle East, and the leading theme is “Personalized Nutrition in aging society: redox control of major age related diseases ”.

The partners' activities, which were carried out over the last four years, were financed under the European Framework Program Horizon 2020.

Let's take math to heart. Entropy in cardiac research

ECG
More than 11 million new cases of cardiovascular disease are reported annually in Europe. Also in Poland, these diseases constitute a large social problem and are the greatest threat to the health of the inhabitants of our country. One of the basic diagnostic tools in cardiology is an ECG - a non-invasive test that shows the bioelectric activity of the heart. It is the ECG records that provide valuable data for scientists from Gdańsk University of Technology who want to use sophisticated mathematics to assist cardiologists in even more effective diagnostics.

The ECG records of a healthy person and a sick person look different. It is, of course, the doctor's job to spot these, sometimes quite subtle, differences. However, the electrocardiogram provides a great deal of data. Some of them are not analyzed as part of standard medical procedures because more advanced methods are needed for their characterization. This is where mathematics comes in handy, and more precisely - the theory of chaos and the theory of dynamical systems.

PESEL Number

What is the Polish Identification Number number (PESEL)?

The PESEL number is an eleven-digit numeric symbol that allows for easy identification of its holder. The PESEL number includes the date of birth, serial number, gender and a control number. Every Polish citizen has it.

Cosmetics based on carrot pomace extracts. This is how biomass can be used

Hay on the field
Natural cosmetics based on carrot pomace extracts or bioplastics from potato leftovers - such can be the use of biomass, so far considered useless waste. This is the result of the research carried out under the project BioBIGG: Bioeconomics in the South Baltic Area: Innovations based on the use of biomass and the development of green areas.

Gdańsk University of Technology was one of the participants in the project. The project manager on behalf of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology was prof. Dariusz Mikielewicz from the Institute of Energy, vice-rector for development and organization.
