An interdisciplinary team will be created as a result of cooperation of experts from Gdańsk University of Technology, the Medical University of Gdańsk and Gemini Polska. The purpose of the newly established trilateral agreement is to jointly conduct research and development projects, which - thanks to the use of modern technologies - will contribute to the improvement of the health of Poles. Scientists from GUT will be involved in the preparation of proposed IT solutions.

The letter of intent was officially signed on 4 March at the Medical University of Gdańsk. Gdańsk University of Technology was represented by Prof. PhD, DSc, Eng.

The Fahrenheit University Association - a joint IT strategy for university management

Prof Wilde and prof Stepnowski
Gdańsk University of Technology and the University of Gdańsk have concluded an agreement on cooperation in the exchange of experiences in the aspect of creating and functioning of the university's IT infrastructure. At the beginning, GUT will grant the UG a license to its eUniversity system and will enable the university to use it within its own organizational structures. The cooperation is carried out within the framework of the Daniel Fahrenheit Union of Universities in Gdańsk, which - apart from GUT and UG - also includes the Medical University of Gdańsk.

The agreement signed by prof. Krzysztof Wilde, rector of Gdańsk University of Technology and prof. Piotr Stepnowski, rector of the University of Gdańsk, covers the joint definition and development of an IT model for university management along with the construction of appropriate IT tools, which at the same time meet the standards of compatibility with IT elements of other cooperating and supervising units.

Another license agreement was signed for an invention in the field of biotechnology created by scientists from Gdańsk University of Technology and Łódź University of Technology. It is a platform that enables the production of proteins based on the gene expression system in a selected yeast species adapted to growth at low temperatures. This unique solution can be used, among others in the production of biopharmaceuticals or enzymes operating at low temperatures, useful for the production of e.g. fragrances or washing agents that work in cold water.

- We have created a tool that allows the production of any protein theoretically. A gene from any organism can be introduced into the selected yeast. Of course, in practice it may turn out that not every protein can ultimately be produced in this way, but thanks to our solution, such attempts can be made - says PhD, DSc, Eng. Marta Wanarska, university professor from the Department of Molecular Biotechnology and Microbiology, Faculty of Chemistry, GUT.
