Dr. Łukasz Witanowski from the Institute of Fluid-Flow Machinery of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Gdańsk proposes to use waste heat to produce cooling. The scientist is working on a system that will, for example, enable heating networks to generate cooling for air conditioning systems in the summer.
Scientists are now able to monitor individual neurons in a living human brain.
Mortality due to heart failure in Central and Eastern Europe countries and the Baltic Sea region is almost three times higher than in the highly developed countries of Western Europe, according to a new report.
The University of Silesia in Katowice has signed a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA) to monitor the mental and behavioural health of astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). The test person will be a Polish astronaut.
Students at the Warsaw University of Technology are working on the third nanosatellite PW-Sat3, whose task will be to test the proprietary drive that enables efficient deorbitation and manoeuvres in orbit. The launch is planned for autumn 2025. The work was delayed due to the pandemic and lack of stable financing.
Jakub Pachocki will take up the position of chief scientist at OpenAI, a company specializing in artificial intelligence. The Polish computer scientist was responsible for creating the GPT-4 model, among other things.
A Polish nurse has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) solution for learning to communicate with dementia patients. For this idea, Adrian Nowakowski has been awarded a prestigious distinction by the Queen of Sweden - the Queen Silvia Nursing Award.
Due to its physicochemical composition, 'Polish smog' is particularly dangerous for the circulatory system, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke, says cardiologist Dr. Łukasz Kuźma. In his opinion, it is our 'new, infamous regional product'.
Recent research from Polish scientists sheds new light on how environmental factors and social interactions influence the production of certain vesicles - exophers - in nematode muscles. The researchers previously demonstrated the importance of exopher production in the regulation of reproduction.
In Poland, we now can more often observe male moose with palmated, 'shovel-shaped' antlers. This is the result of the moose hunting ban in force since 2001. Researchers confirmed it by analysing photos posted on social media.
