Investigating Bacterial Resistance to Oxygen-Based Therapies

Michał Pierański, PhD, a researcher at the Faculty of Chemistry at Gdańsk University of Technology
Michał Pierański, PhD, a researcher at the Faculty of Chemistry at Gdańsk University of Technology, has been awarded a prestigious grant from the National Science Centre (NCN) under the SONATINA 9 call. As part of the project, he will investigate the mechanisms of tolerance exhibited by Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus) to reactive oxygen species (ROS) used in antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI). The outcomes of this research may contribute to the development of new strategies for combating antibiotic-resistant infections.

The grant, valued at nearly PLN 1.25 million, will enable Doctor Pierański to conduct research both at Gdańsk University of Technology and during a six-month research stay at the University Hospital in Ulm, Germany, within the laboratory of Prof. Barbara Spellerberg, a world-renowned expert in streptococcal biology.

After many years of discussion, a site has finally been selected for the construction of the new seat of the Baltic Opera. Following a comprehensive analysis, the Economic Advisory Team to the Rector of Gdańsk University of Technology recommended Plac Zebrań Ludowych (People's Meeting Square) as the optimal location. A letter of intent concerning the construction of the new opera house was signed by Mieczysław Struk, Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship, and Aleksandra Dulkiewicz, Mayor of Gdańsk.

On Monday, July 14, a meeting of the Social Committee for the Support of the Construction of the Metropolitan Baltic Opera was held. During the meeting, the results of the expert team's work were presented. Based on urban planning documents, technical conditions, opinions from the Pomeranian Regional Heritage Conservator, and on-site assessments, the team unanimously recommended Plac Zebrań Ludowych as the most suitable site for the project.
