This year they came to the Institute on March 7, 2011 to hear a talk by Prof. U. Sławińska on The history and achievements of the Nencki Institute and by M. Lebiedzińska entitled A bad and a good thing in one, mitochondrial function in the cell. Next, the young visitors familiarized themselves with research conducted at 7 selected Nencki labs (program included). Between March 8-11 scholarship holders participated in the activities organized by 7 labs at the Institute.

All workshop participants were very pleased with the experience and claimed to have broadened their knowledge and become familiar with modern equipment by being able to independently conduct the experiments and use their practical skills.
