I graduated 'Environmental Protection' and 'Stationary Doctoral Studies in Ecology and Environmental Protection' at the Faculty of Biology and Environmental Protection, University of Lodz. My research on the diversity of freshwater benthic macroinvertebrates I have conducted in the Department of Ecology and Vertebrate Zoology.

I am interested in the biology and ecology of benthic macroinvertebrates of flowing water ecosystems, paying special attention to some of the world's most plastic insects - dipterans from Chironomidae family.

In my free time I enjoy reading about the turbulent history of the city of Lodz and spending time outdoors with my dog.
