The appearance of pathogenic nucleosides in mitochondrial RNA molecules can cause severe dysfunction of mitochondria, which are the energy centres of our cells. Their damage gives rise to symptoms of hypertension, type 2 diabetes and Leber hereditary neuropathy of the optic nerve (LHON). Researchers at the Faculty of Chemistry of Lodz University of Technology, under the direction of Assoc. Prof. Grazyna Leszczynska, are looking to identify the cause of these dysfunctions at the molecular level.
New computational tools based on the DMRG (density matrix renormalization group) method will be created at the Institute of Physics of Lodz University of Technology in cooperation with scientists from the Czech Academy of Sciences, within the framework of the OPUS LAP project funded by the National Science Centre and the Czech Science Foundation.
After the first stage of admissions to Lodz University of Technology, there are still available places for first-cycle studies: full-time (740 places) and part-time (55 places). Documents can be submitted until 14 September.
Three important projects carried out by researchers from Lodz University of Technology will be funded by the National Science Centre from the OPUS 22 and OPUS LAP programmes. The total amount of funding is over 4 million PLN.
