Aleksandra Bilska, a member of the Laboratory of RNA Biology - ERA Chairs Group, was among the 100 most talented Polish scientists under 30 in the START 2021 programme. As a laureate of the competition, selected from 1034 candidates, she will receive a scholarship in the amount of PLN 28,000, which is proof of recognition of her achievements to date. Scholarship can be spent for any purpose.

"Start" programme is organized by the Foundation for Polish Science. It is Poland’s largest scholarship programme for the best young scientists representing all fields of science.
