The 6-weeks internships of two members of our research group: Natalia Barteczko and Anna Szelwicka, has just been ended. Our PhD students were investigating  the electrochemical properties of selected ionic liquids in nanopores in collaboration with prof. Zuzanna Siwy’s group from  Irvine – University of California. The visits  were undertaken under the Synergy Project (founded by National Agency for Academic Exchange) which aims to establish international partnerships with leading universities.  Irvine – University of California is one of the best 100 Universities in the world according to the World University Rankings. We are very pleased, we could gain the experience on conducting the research as well as new knowledge concerning experiments in nanopores at a leading group working in this field. Thank you for a great hospitality and we are looking forward the exciting results of our collaboration!
