Doctoral Day at the Faculty of Space Technologies
- 13.05.2026
Doctoral Day
Are you considering a PhD, or are you already on the doctoral journey and looking to connect with other researchers, learn about their work, and maybe start a scientific collaboration?
We invite you to Doctoral Day on 13 May 2026, taking place from 10:00 to 11:30 in room 1.05 (building D-3).
The event will be held in English.
Event Program
10:00 – 10:45 | My PhD Story
Short talks by PhD candidates and one recently graduated researcher, sharing their scientific journeys, challenges, and discoveries.
10:45 – 11:30 | Science Networking Mixer
An open networking session where you can talk directly with doctoral researchers, ask questions about their work, and explore potential collaborations.
Our PhD researchers will be seated at individual tables, and participants are invited to join the table that interests them most. Through short, informal conversations, you can quickly learn as much as possible about their research, daily work, and PhD experience.
Meet the Team
Dr. Dagmara Stasiowska
Defended her PhD on biocybernetic modelling of bee colonies under stress conditions related to spaceflight in March 2025. She also contributed to the MXene in LEO experiment developed at AGH and conducted during Poland’s first scientific mission to the ISS.
Agnieszka Talik (PhD candidate)
Her research focuses on developing sustainable composites from algae and regolith using ISRU principles, with applications in bioplastic production and carbon dioxide sequestration for life support systems.
Xiaoqian Gao (PhD candidate)
Works on soft, trunk-like robotic systems for on-orbit servicing and non-invasive grasping of CubeSats, enabling safe interaction with satellites that lack docking interfaces.
Piotr Pichór (PhD candidate)
Develops satellite-based water quality forecasting and modelling systems using Earth observation data.
