Lukasz Cwiklik

My team currently has eight members at various career stages; the group is international (75% foreigners). I promote excellence, fairness, and gender equality in science. I am the youngest professor working at the Institute; I also teach courses at Charles University. I came to the Czech Republic from abroad; I also spent several years working in different countries (Israel, Finland, Poland).
