Katarzyna Rusinek-Abarca

In contrast to the rest of the team my scientific background is related to astronomy and astrophysics in which I obtained my MSc degree in 2016 at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland. The same year I moved to Warsaw to begin my PhD studies at the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center of the Polish Academy of Sciences. This stage has been completed in 2022 when I defended my thesis in which I summed up my studies on the data analysis of radio observations of the jets produced by supermassive black holes within the centers of galaxies other than the Milky Way.

Along the way I decided to steer my career in a new direction which brought me to my current role as Research Promoter at the Centre where I have found that although the subject matter is utterly different, the skills I gained allow to help build a more robust research environment.
