On Saturday, June 14, 2025, Foundation for Polish Science held a gala at the Royal Castle in Warsaw and Piotr Chyży received the diploma as the laureate of the START program. Congratulations! Photos from this event are available.

Mateusz, our post-doctoral researcher, received a MINIATURA grant for his project on PNA-siderophore conjugates to combat Yersinia enterocolitica.

Our PhD student, Piotr Chyży, was awarded by the Foundation of Polish Science (FNP) in the START programme for the most successful young scientists!

Congratulations!

A new video outlining our main research interests has been released! To learn more about our current projects and scientific goals, check out the video on LinkedIn or Facebook.

A new post-doctoral researcher, Emil, joined our team to work on the development of new antibacterial agents in the SONATA BIS project.

Welcome!

A PhD Student from our Team, Piotr Chyży, received an award for his poster entitled “How a single-point mutation rearranges the association path of neomycin to N1 riboswitch and changes its activity” presented at the CECAM Workshop in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Congratulations!

Our team member Julia Macyszyn successfully defended her PhD thesis on antimicrobial peptides at the Faculty of Chemistry, University of Warsaw.

Congratulations!

Our Team Leader prof. Joanna Trylska was awarded in the NAWA Bekker programme!

During her fellowship at Rikagaku Kenkyūsho (RIKEN) in Tokyo, Japan, prof. Trylska will investigate the mechanisms of interactions between antibacterial peptides and bacterial membranes using simulation methods.

Congratulations!

Prof. Trylska and Dr. Wojciechowska, together with their collaborators, have received funding from the SEED4EU+ program for the project “Advanced photoluminescent platform for bacterial treatment”.

This project brings together scientists from three European universities – the University of Warsaw, the University of Milan, and Charles University – to support innovative research to create an effective platform for novel antibacterial agents based on compounds with antimicrobial properties: luminescent platinum complexes and peptide nucleic acids.

Congratulations to all involved – exciting work lies ahead!

A new PhD Student Helena joined our team to work on the SONATA BIS project. Welcome!

Our team member Joanna Miszkiewicz successfully defended her PhD thesis at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw. Congratulations!
