Discover the secrets of Tardigrades
We invite you to attend a fascinating lecture by Izabela Poprawa, Ph.D., on September 17 about these incredibly resilient microscopic creatures. Tardigrades, also known as water bears, captivate scientists and the public with their extraordinary ability to survive extreme conditions – from drought and radiation to the vacuum of space.
In her lecture, Dr. Izabela Poprawa will explore their biology, potential applications in biotechnology and medicine, and present the Tardigrade Space Travel and Yeast TardigradeGene projects, conducted as part of Poland’s “Ignis” mission to the International Space Station.
