The National Science Centre of Poland (NCN) has awarded Dr. Mateusz Hohol a research grant of PLN 1.7 million (around EUR 400,000) for the implementation of the project titled The Gist of Math: Applying Fuzzy-Trace Theory as an Integrative Framework to Investigate Different Dimensions of Numerical Memory and Their Associations with Mathematical Skills in the General Population and Among Individuals with Dyscalculia.

We’re thrilled to announce the publication of a new research paper by Michał Obidziński, Nina Bażela, and Mateusz Hohol in Cognition. The paper, titled “More gist, better math: A Fuzzy-Trace Theory-based investigation of the relationship between long-term memory and mathematical skills”, explores how different types of memory processes contribute to mathematical abilities, offering new insights into the cognitive foundations of math performance.

Zaproszenie do bezpłatnego udziału w grze miejskiej „Międzygalaktyczna Misja Miejska” na Kampusie UJ w ramach Copernicus Festival: Tajemnica.

Between May 20 and 25, we invite you to the popular science event - Copernicus Festival, which brings together the worlds of science and culture since 2014. What is behind the dark energy that expands the universe? How does our brain vs. artificial intelligence learn? Do chimpanzees have their own language and consciousness? What can we read today from DNA from thousands of years ago?

Zapraszamy na intelektualną podróż do fascynującego świata nauki i kultury. Podczas tegorocznego Copernicus Festival w dniach 21-26 maja skupimy się na Maszynach – przyjrzymy się zarówno rozwojowi naszej technologii, jak i temu, co metafora maszyny wnosi do naszego rozumienia świata i samych siebie.
