The Nencki Institute’s Board of Directors invites everyone to join a new initiative of the Nencki Alumni Club

The Nencki Alumni Club is open to all alumni (people who have defended their PhD theses at Nencki), professionally active as well as retired. Professional activity is understood not only as doing scientific research but also working in other fields, such as companies and schools.

Prof. Jolanta Barańska coordinates this initiative under the Nencki PhD Program. To join the Club please email her at j.baranska@nencki.gov.pl

In 2013 we will be celebrating the 95th anniversary of the Nencki Institute and on this occasion we would like to organize a special Session, during which Nencki alumni will talk about their achievements and share their memories.
