FREEDOM OF RESEARCH
SCIENCE FOR THE FUTURE

Various studies, creation of test stands for research, translations, proofreading, research visits and participation in conferences – these are just some examples of research activities co-funded in the ‘Freedom of Research’ call for proposals under the Research Excellence Initiative. In this way, the founders of the initiative intended to support the scientific development of employees of the University of Silesia in Katowice, as well as to build a ranked publication record and promote and commercialise knowledge.

Did they achieve this goal? This question will be answered by scientists from the University of Silesia, winners of the above-mentioned call for proposals. Their statements will be published on this website as part of the ‘Freedom of Research – Science for the Future’ series.

Please watch our short videos, listen to podcasts, and read articles and interviews.
