The FameLab competition is an international initiative that takes place around the world under the aegis of the British Council.

The semi-finalists include scientists from Warsaw (6 people) and Krakow (5). Poznań (4 people) was the third, presenting among others two PhD students from the University of Life Sciences: Emilia Zawieja – PhD student at the Institute of Human Nutrition and Dietetics at the Faculty of Food Sciences and nutrition, and Natalia Leciejewska – a PhD student at the Department of Animal Physiology and Biochemistry at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences.
