It is with a heavy heart that I announce the closing of our Dioscuri Centre. Although we were offered a funding extension (thank you MPG and NCN), after careful reflection I have decided not to accept it, mainly for personal reasons.
This decision was not made lightly. Over the years, the Centre has been a place of collaboration, discovery, and shared purpose. I am deeply grateful to everyone who has supported us — my co-workers, scientific partners, and friends. Your dedication and enthusiasm have been at the heart of everything we accomplished.
With heartfelt thanks and warm regards,
Bartek Waclaw – leader of The Dioscuri Centre
