Reducing carbon dioxide emissions is one of the biggest challenges facing civilisation. Dawid Zawadzki, M.Sc., who is designing a compact CO2 absorption device, wants to make his contribution to solving this problem. In the future, it could be used on oil platforms or ships.
]One of the aims of the NCRD's Leader programme is to scientifically solve problems faced by industry. It assumes the transfer of knowledge from the university to the company, as in the case of Lucyna Bilińska, Ph.D., from the Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering. With a degree in textiles and conducting research in the Department of Molecular Engineering, she is designing a technology for the treatment of textile wastewater, already used in a dyeing plant.
Advertising makes the trade go round, but emotions are at the beginning of the purchasing decision. They play a key role before the consumer decides to pay for a product. The advertising industry tries to exploit this by influencing our choices. Kamil Lubinski, M.Sc., from the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School, investigates nostalgic brand image management in the toy industry.
Among the young scientists conducting their research at the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School is Lin Fu, a native of China. Under the guidance of Professor Łukasz Kaczmarek, she is working on the development of personalized trapezoidal-metacarpal implants.
The queen of the sciences - mathematics is another discipline on offer at the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School. Welcome to a new episode in the series 'Steer your future with IDS'.
The number of oncological patients is growing every year, and as a result, the need to develop effective anti-cancer drugs is increasing. A team of scientists from Lodz University of Technology, Medical Universities of Lodz and Lublin and the Centre of Molecular and Macromolecular Studies of Polish Academy of Sciences in Lodz are responding to this challenge. They designed, synthesized, and thoroughly studied the physicochemical and biological properties of two new compounds with potential anti-cancer effects. dr hab. inż. Agnieszka Czylkowska, TUL prof. and prof. dr hab. n. farm. Paweł Szymański.
New applications for drones continue to emerge, which requires their continuous improvement. This is the problem being tackled by Maciej Podsędkowski, M.Sc., who is pursuing his doctoral thesis in the field of mechanical engineering, at the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School of Lodz University of Technology.
Thanks to the cooperation of TUL engineers, doctors from the Institute of the Polish Mother’s Health Centre and employees of Netrix S.A., the medical underwear project was created. This solution will allow a non-invasive, and therefore painless, diagnosis of children's urinary tract.
Passion and science accompany young researchers from Lodz University of Technology. Evidence of this can be seen in the PhDs carried out in the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School. One of the 12 disciplines that the young researchers are developing is architecture. Eng. arch. Marta Piórkowska, M.A. talks about her research into the influence of landscape on 20th-century architecture in the Nordic countries of Finland, Norway and Sweden, the subject of her PhD.
Watch the premiere episode of the series "Steer your future with IDS", exploring the discipline of physical sciences - conducted at the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School at TUL.
In April, Lodz University of Technology will launch a new series of meetings "Zawód Naukowiec" (Scientist as the Profession”) aimed at the local community: young people over 13 years old and adults. It will be a unique opportunity to meet interesting scientists and visit a beautiful green campus of the university.
Researchers from the Institute of Mechatronics and Information Systems at Lodz University of Technology, in cooperation with the Institute of Psychology at the University of Lodz, have developed an innovative tool for stress reduction. Thanks to the cooperation with the City Hall, it may help refugees from Ukraine to overcome post-war trauma. The pilot programme was launched on 7 April at the City Activity Office at 10 Tuwima Street.
Not long after the daguerreotype was invented by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce and Louis Jacques Daguerre, the first use of photographs for research purposes followed. It is not without reason that the Institut De Republica is looking for people who conduct research, document their experiments, or capture their activities in photographs. The collected materials will soon bring a new dimension to the promotion of Polish science.
By the decision of the President of the Republic of Poland of 16 February, Małgorzata Matusiak of the TUL’s Faculty of Material Technologies and Textile Design was awarded the title of professor of engineering sciences in the discipline of material engineering.
Researchers from the Department of Molecular Physics of Lodz University of Technology received over PLN 1.2 million in funding from the National Centre for Research and Development for their project entitled "New methods for structuring printed QD-LEDs for use in light displays". This is another example of joint research between Poland and Berlin/Brandenburg in the field of development and innovation in photonics.
