The Center for New Technologies is an independent research unit at the University of Warsaw. Our main task is to conduct scientific research at the highest level. It is equally important to make its significance visible to the public – to show that these are important activities that may have a real impact on our lives in the future,” says Prof. Jacek Jemielity, director of CeNT UW, in the “mUWi się.” podcast.
“mUWi się. Podcasts of the University of Warsaw” is a series of conversations devoted to academic life – science, teaching, investments, and issues important to the university. Mateusz Szymkowiak’s guest was Prof. Jacek Jemielity, director of the Center for New Technologies at the University of Warsaw.

In the first part, Prof. Jacek Jemielity talks about his scientific career and the mission of CeNT, and explains the importance of commercializing research and its role in transferring scientific results into practical applications.
The second part of the conversation focuses on mRNA technology.
