Irina Tuszyńska and Marcin Jaciuk were awarded stipend grants for young researchers given by Foundation for Polish Science (FNP) under the START Programme.

This programme is directed to young researchers, at the outset of their career, who have already achieved some success in their field. The stipends serve as recognition of the scientific attainments so far by these young scholars and as an incentive for further growth by enabling them to devote themselves fully to their research.
