"Snow's Eye" is the winner of the first edition of the Laboratorium Pomysłów program

We already know the winners of the 1st edition of the "Laboratorium Pomysłów" Grant Program!

One of the two awarded projects is "Snow's Eye" submitted by Jan Mikołajczyk, founder of the students' group Measurement Systems and Automation (Koło Naukowe Systemów Pomiarowych i Automatyki) operating at our Faculty.

The aim of the project is to build a drone to measure snow thickness in polar and mountainous areas.

We encourage you to submit your projects for the second edition, which starts on February 4th (and will last until February 28th).

1 postdoctoral research position in the scientific project „Tensor rank and its applications to signature tensors of paths”, financed by National Science Centre

The National Science Centre project “Tensor rank and its applications to signature tensors of paths” (project no 2023/51/D/ST1/002363), is offering one postdoctoral research position at the Institute of Mathematics at the Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Mechanics of the University of Warsaw.

Requirements

  • A PhD in mathematics or equivalent, obtained before the start of employment (the PhD can be obtained after the deadline of applications).
  • Good communication skills in English.
  • A solid background in algebraic geometry or commutative algebra. Alternatively, a solid background in an area of math related to the project, and the willingness to gain a working knowledge of algebraic geometry.

Research experience in one of the topics related to the project (for instance secant varieties, tensor rank, signatures of paths, etc.) will be an advantage. Ability to work on topics outside of one's scientific comfort zone is also considered valuable.

Principal Investigator: dr Francesco Galuppi

Application deadline: March 1, 2025
