Jarosław Korczyński, biographical note
Since childhood I was interested in biology and generally nature. I followed my interests during my education process and finally graduated biology with honors at Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Poland. There, for the first time, I have become acquainted with the fascinating world of microscopy experiments. Continuing my fascination with biology I began PhD studies at the Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology in Warsaw, Poland, where I investigated signaling pathways which regulate actin cytoskeleton dynamics in glioma C6 cells and astrocytes, using both biochemical and confocal microscopy techniques. There I met with a different type of fluorescent experiments like 3D visualization, FRET and FRAP techniques, STED microscopy, Calcium measurement and live cell imaging. Now, since July of this year, I’m working as an application specialist in KAWA.SKA Company – distributor of microscopy equipment in Poland.
