Action 8

Co-financing the purchase of modern scientific research infrastructure

The aim of this action is to strengthen and develop scientific research infrastructure, to expand the functionality of specialised software enabling research at the international level, and to foster domestic and international collaboration. 

Zdjęcie przedstawiające zbliżenie na okrągły otwór inspekcyjny pozwalający dostrzec wnętrze aparatury laboratoryjnej. Centralny element ma budowę sfery, do której promieniście dochodzą metalowe rury. Wewnątrz sfery znajduje się badana próbka materiału. Spoczywa ona na dolnej z czterech metalowych półeczek.
