We are delighted to announce that Szymon Kaczmarczyk, a first-year student of Computational Physics and thesis student of dr hab. Maciej Matyka, prof. UWr, has been awarded one of the two prestigious Student Poster Awards at the international InterPore 2025 conference.

Szymon Kaczmarczyk presented his scientific poster entitled “Cauliflower shapes of bacterial clusters in the off-lattice Eden model”, prepared as part of an NCN grant under the supervision of prof. Maciej Matyka. His participation in the conference was made possible thanks to funding from the Young Researcher programme under the IDUB initiative.

The Student Poster Award is a monetary prize (€500) granted for outstanding student poster presentations at the annual InterPore conference. The jury selects a maximum of two winners from among undergraduate, master’s and doctoral students worldwide.

Congratulations to Szymon! We wish him continued success in his scientific pursuits!
