Professor Stanis\u0142aw Karpi\u0144ski from the\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

Department of Genetics, Plant Breeding and Biotechnology,Institute of Biology, SGGW, received the Prof. W\u0142adys\u0142aw Szafer Medal, a distinction of the Polish Botanical Society for notable achievements. The medal is awarded to authors of works with outstanding scientific value in the science of botany.<\/b><\/p>

Prof. Stanis\u0142aw Karpi\u0144sk<\/b>i was born in Pozna\u0144 in 1960, and graduated from the Agricultural Academy (now the University of Life Sciences) with a specialization in agricultural engineering and master’s degree in biochemistry.<\/span><\/p>

During 1981-1989 he was actively involved in the Independent Students’ Association,NZS, and after the introduction of martial law he joined the “Solidarity” movement fighting for freedom and democracy. For that activity, he was awarded the Cross of Freedom and Solidarity in 2015.<\/span><\/p>

In 1988 he emigrated to Sweden, and in 1994 he defended his doctorate at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Umea. In 1995, he received a scholarship from the Swedish government for a postdoc internshipship, and in 1995-1997 he completed it at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, UK. In 1997 he returned to Sweden and was employed as an assistant professor at SLU, Umea.<\/span><\/p>

In 1999 he obtained a private postdoctoral degree in molecular plant physiology at SLU, and was employed as associate professor at the Department of Botany at Stockholm University.<\/span><\/p>

In 2004 he was promoted to the position of full professor by the Rector of Stockholm University.<\/span><\/p>

In 2009, he was the laureate of the first “Welcome 2008” competition of the Foundation for Polish Science and since then he has been employed at the Warsaw University of Life Sciences.<\/span><\/p>

In February 2010 President Lech Kaczy\u0144ski awarded Prof. Karpi\u0144ski the title of Professor in the field of biology, at the request of the Scientific Council of the Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw.<\/span><\/p>

The title was awarded without the Polish habilitation process based on the outstanding scientific achievements.<\/span><\/p>

In 1999 Prof. Karpi\u0144ski discovered a new physiological mechanism in plants called Systemic Acquired Acclimation (SAA), it was published in Science <\/span>https:\/\/www.science.org\/doi\/abs\/10.1126\/science.284.5414.654?cookieSet=1.<\/a><\/span><\/p>

In 2010, he discovered a new physiological mechanism of cellular light\u00a0 memory (CLM) necessary for induction of SAA,\u00a0 published in the prestigious American journal, The Plant Cell <\/span>https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/plcell\/article\/22\/7\/2201\/6095939?login=false.<\/a><\/span><\/p>

Lately (2022) he discovered<\/span> a new communication mechanism within plant ecosystems.<\/span> The <\/span>phenomenon is known as \u201cnetwork acquired acclimation (NAA), <\/span>\u00a0https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/plcell\/advance-article\/doi\/10.1093\/plcell\/koac150\/6589903?login=true<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0All the discoveries were made with the participation of the international teams from Sweden and Poland.<\/span><\/p>
