Visit from Poland
In the framework of our research collaboration and Erasmus exchange program with AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Materials Science and Ceramics, Krakow, Poland, we received the visit of Ms Aleksandra Wajda, PhD student at AGH University of Science and Technology under supervision of Prof. Maciej Sitarz. We collaborate with the group of Prof. Sitarz in the field of antibacterial ion doped silicate glasses made by sol-gel technique, which is in the framework of our general research interest on therapeutic ion releasing bioactive glasses [1].
