Institute of Paleobiology participates in the project co-financed from EU structural funds "Innovative Economy Operational Programme, Priority Axis 2: R&D Infrastructure, Action 2.2: Support of Formation of Common Research Infrastructure of Scientific Units". Together with 10 institutional partners (NanoBioGeo consortium), the Institute is a part of National Multidisciplinary Laboratory of Functional Nanomaterials (NanoFun) [LINK]. Jaroslaw Stolarski is a project coordinator in the Institute, and head of Laboratories of Cathodolumienscence Microscopy and Microtomography. [info]
Institute of Paleobiology participates in HOMING PLUS Programme (granted to Barbara Kremer) that is co-financed from EU structural funds under Action 1.2 ‘Strengthening the human resources potential of science’ of the Innovative Economy Operational Programme 2007–2013 (Research topic: Modern mineralized cyanobacteria from alkaline volcanic lakes as analogues of Earth's early life).
