VI edition of Symposium: Perspectives in biodiversity protection

VI edition of Symposium

Perspectives in biodiversity protection

22nd-23rd October 2024

House of Creative Work
of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Wierzba

The aim of the Symposium is to exchange scientific and practical experiences and to integrate the community of researchers and practitioners – environmental specialists.

This will be VIedition of the Symposium, during which we will talk about the protection of biodiversity, the relationship between human and free-living fauna, its protection and, on the other hand, its use of wild animal as a research model.

The Symposium is organised in partnership between the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, the Division of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Olsztyn and Białystok and the Mazurian Natural Landscape Park.

Framework programme for the Symposium

Sesion I and III will be held in Polish and Sesion II in English.

Registration

Registration is already closed

Participants who plan to give a talk (10-15 min.) are required to send an abstract (max. one page, font Times New Roman 12, leading 1.5) by 10 October 2024 to the following email address: symbios@pan.olsztyn.pl).

Participation is free of charge, participants cover their own travel and accommodation costs.

The symposium will be held at the House of Creative Work of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Wierzba.

Due to the planned field workshop on 23 October, please remember to wear appropriate footwear and clothing.

EIT Food Educators

FoodEducators is an EIT Food* programme that provides teachers with fun, creative and interesting activities to engage young people, mainly schoolchildren.

The easily accessible, science-based food education lesson plans and learning materials enhance students’ learning so they can become better informed, conscious consumers of the future. The programme is represented through 10+ national HUBs all over the EU and offers downloadable lesson plans on the foodeducators.eu website in national languages tackling with the following themes: Food & Health, Food & Sustainability, Food Science & Food System, Agrifood Jobs & Careers. 

The main learning objectives and outcomes the programme is seeking are improving systems thinking and mapping, sustainable lifestyles and healthy eating behaviors.

In Poland, FoodEducators is represented by the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences. All our FoodEducators-related events and activities can be found here (pan.olsztyn.pl). Should you have any questions about FoodEducators, please contact us at j.banasiak@pan.olsztyn.pl.

Join hundreds of food educators using our materials in their classes, clubs and events!

* EIT Food is the world’s largest and most dynamic food innovation community, supported by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union.

PhD Candidate for MSCA call

The Director of the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School announces the recruitment to the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School of Agricultural Sciences within the Maria Skłodowska-Curie Action PhD Fellowship in:

„Personal genetic and epigenetic signatures of immune cells in context of plant-based meals”

Within the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA), the new Doctoroal Network project NUTRIOME is offering 10 positions as PhD fellowship/Research Doctoral Candidates (RDC). The positions are for 36 months and are funded by Horizon Europe.

NUTRIOME – Precision nutrition and postprandial immune responses is a MSCA Doctoral Network. The NUTRIOME network involves academic partners at nine European academic institutions and six associated partners from industry across Norway, Poland, The Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. The purpose of the NUTRIOME network is to train 10 RDCs in data-driven precision nutrition through human intervention studies, omics-technologies and advanced data analyses, in order to evaluate personal responses to foods and diets.

One of the PhD fellowships is open at the Institute of Animal Reprorduction and Food Research (IARFR) of the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAS) in Olsztyn, Poland, under the supervision of Prof. Carsten Carlberg who runs international group of interdisplinary resarchers with the goal to investigate the effect of vitamin D and other nutritional compounds on changes of the epigenome and transcriptome of tissues and cell types of healthy and (pre)diseased individuals. Professor Carlberg has expertise, projects and interests in gene regulation, epigenetics and vitamin D in the context of nutrigenomics, immunology and cancer.

Recycle Hero Quiz – Adults

Hello,

Thank you for taking part in Recycle Hero quiz powered by EIT Food InformPack!

In this activity, you will check how much you know about the recycling of food packaging. We would also like to ask you some general questions about your recycling behaviour and background information.

The quiz will take you around 7 minutes and your answers will be treated confidentially.

Let’s start!

 

By clicking "START", I consent to take part in this quiz and I am aware that:
1. My participation is voluntary.
2. No personally identifiable information will be requested from me such as name, ID, or other contact details.
3. The raw data on which the results of the study are based will be retained in secure cloud storage.
4. Data from this study may be published.

Question 1

Bioplastic does not always mean the material is biodegradable or can be composted.

Did you know that if packaging is labelled “biodegradable” but does not state exactly in what conditions, it means specific industrial environments are needed to break it down. You can’t home compost such packaging.

Put it into a waste container according to the instructions of your local waste management company.

 

Question 2

We dispose of food packaging empty to not disturb its future processing. Food and liquid leftovers can affect the recycling process (don't throw a half-full jam jar in the garbage).

Neither glass nor plastic or metal needs to be washed before being disposed of in the segregated waste bin. It is enough to empty them. Food packaging will be washed at a later stage of recycling, so let's sort them and dispose of them in the appropriate containers.

Packages should not be washed unless the municipality specifically recommends it.

Remember that washing packages result in increased water consumption!

 

Question 3

It is made partially from paper, but also from plastic and aluminium, which are difficult to separate it by hand or using simple mechanical methods.

It is important to notice that different countries sort tetra packs in different containers.

For example in Poland or Spain you should put it into the PLASTIC/METAL container, but in Denmark you should put it into the GENERAL/MIXED WASTE container.

As you can see, the rules change depending on the region or country, so make sure to check them when you're visiting a new place.

 

Question 4

The plastic cup and aluminium lid are not made of the same material, but in some countries we can throw them into the same bin.

It is good to tear the metal lids off the plastic cups completely and throw them separately into the proper container. Remember - Donʼt crush the lids  – they will get too small for the sorting machines!

 

Question 5

If the packaging is dirty or greasy, throw it into the GENERAL/MIXED WASTE container, because oil/fats can affect the recycling process. If it’s clean - i.e. does not carry any visible oil stains - throw it into the PAPER container.

Since paper can be very difficult to clean (especially if it has soaked liquids, such as oily substances), it is highly recommended that dirty paper packaging be disposed of in the general trash, and only clean ones go to recycling. This is because the input of oily substances can strongly interrupt paper recycling due to the watery character of the process.

 

Question 6

This symbol is called Möbius Loop and it means that the packaging CAN be recycled and used to make new products after processing.

 

Question 7

The tidy man symbol doesn't specifically relate to recycling but is a reminder to not litter.

 

Question 8

The Green Dot logo means that the producer has made a (usually financial) contribution towards the recycling of packaging. It is a trademark of Packaging Recovery Organisation Europe.
