I am currently working on the immunologic features of human podocytes, as well as role of Klotho and NPP1 proteins in the course of diabetic nephropathy. Previously, I studied genetics and immunology of sarcoidosis and tuberculosis. I work with cell lines, I perform quantitative analyses of gene and protein expression. I also implement techniques like immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry, and analyse glycolitic parametres of podocytes by measurement of extracellular acidification.

- brings together researchers with different methodological approaches (social sciences and humanities);

- using research strategies focusing on various facets of diversity;

- communication barriers;

- migrants' access to public health;

- climate migration;

- the social-cultural adaptation of migrants.

Our main research topics are: (1) zoobenthos with a special emphasis on species as well functional diversity, (2) biology, ecology and ecophysiology of benthic invertebrates with a special emphasis on non-indigenous species and anthropogenic pressure (3) innovative aquaculture with a special emphasis on recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and invertebrates. We work in the field, mainly in coastal waters, and conduct laboratory research based on an experimental approach.

• A great part of our research focuses on the phenomenon of Metacognitive Self, understood as self-awareness of biases in social perception. Our research reports to date indicate the motivating role of the metacognitive self in learning, it's importance for human development, and is rooted in cognitive processing.

The research topics of the Department of Analytical Chemistry are focused on the issues of chemistry and intermolecular interactions occurring in solution and at the solid-liquid phase boundary.

Our research focused on group processes and intergroup relations, urban life, place attachment, walkability, well-being, processes of radicalization and polarization, personality factors influencing social relations.

• Our projects aim at making people understand what determines well-being and quality of life in socio-economic and cultural context. The areas of our interest include: social psychology, psychology of individual differences, economic psychology, consumer and organizational psychology.
