Publication by UW Faculty of Chemistry scientists honored with the Crystallographic Diamond

17 06 2026

We are pleased to announce that a publication by scientists from the Faculty of Chemistry at the University of Warsaw (UW), led by Dr. Hab. Katarzyna Jarzembska, University Professor, has been awarded the title of Crystallographic Diamond by the Committee on Crystallography of the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN).

This honorary distinction is awarded annually by the PAN Committee on Crystallography to five publications related to crystallography that were published in the preceding year (2025) and whose corresponding author is affiliated with a Polish research institution.

The awarded publication will be presented at the annual Crystallographic Conversatorium, held at the Institute of Low Temperature and Structure Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Wrocław.
