Even teenagers working on groundbreaking innovations

Carbon technologies in medicine, the extraction of valuable substances from plants that can be used in medicine and cosmetology, or innovative methods to prevent complications associated with brittle bone syndrome – these are examples of areas dealt with by young researchers awarded in the first edition of the 'Talents of Tomorrow' grant programme. It was organized by the Empiria and Knowledge Foundation, set up by Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (BGK), which announces that it will be a cyclical programme. Financial support is one of the greatest needs of young researchers today and can determine the development of their projects in Poland.

"We support young scientists because we believe in their potential and talent. We are already seeing young people creating new projects, inventions and working on research that is capable of changing Polish science. We also believe that it is young Poles who can create a new innovation center in the world, and this center will be right here in Poland."  Zuzanna Piasecka, president of the Empiria and Knowledge Foundation, said.

What is important is that young scientists need financial support to be able to continue and develop their passions, research and interests.
