The Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) has announced the results of the second call for applications for scholarships under the Iwanowska Programme. One of the winners is Kamila Butowska – PhD student from Laboratory of Biophysics who will spend a year at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.

Scholarships have been granted to top 66 doctoral students, who will visit renowned research centres abroad. The scholarships will cover the costs of their stay.

The scholarship holders were selected from among 228 applicants. The objective of the Programme is to promote international mobility of Polish doctoral students by enabling them to carry out research or hold classes in foreign research and academic centres around the world. Visits lasting from 3 to 12 months allow them to join recognized scientific teams and carry out projects under the direction of outstanding scientists from abroad.
