Since the beginning of my professional work, I also established numerous cooperation with industry, transferring acquired knowledge into the realization of technological solutions in companies, including Innowacja Polska sp. z o.o. and EC Grupa sp. z o.o. My academic achievements consist of 49 published scientific articles, including 24 from the base of Journal Citation Reports (including 23 which were published after gaining my doctoral degree), the total IF of which (according to the year of publishing) is 38.651. According to the base SCOPUS my Hirsch index is 8. The results of my research were presented at 41 scientific conferences (including 30 international ones). I am a co-author of one patent (PL – 221932 B1, 2016) concerning a method of improving the mechanical properties of Al alloys and one patent application (P – 410079, 2014), which includes the use of a plasma chemical method to modify onlays for bumpers. Furthermore, I have been the head of the Laboratory of Vapour Deposited Materials (WIMiC, AGH) since January 2015. It is worth mentioning that, while conducting my research, I have cooperated with many academic centers including the Faculty of Chemistry Jagiellonian University (the team of Prof. Ph.D. Grazyna Stochel), Institute of Materials Science and Engineering Lodz University of Technology (the team of Ph.D Eng. Lukasz Kaczmarek, Prof. PL), Technical University of Kosice (Slovakia) and University of Zaragoza (Spain), as well as companies that operate in the field of surface material engineering.
