Institute of High Pressure Physics

Researchers from the Institute of High Pressure Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences (IWC PAS / Unipress) will take part in the 8th International Symposium on Growth of III-Nitrides (ISGN-8), held at National Cheng Kung University in Tainan, Taiwan, on 9–12 November 2025.

The Institute’s Director, prof. Michał Boćkowski, will deliver an invited lecture in Session S1 “III-N Bulk Crystal Growth,” titled “The Science and Art of GaN Crystal Growth.”

This year ISGN-8 will also inaugurate the Iwińska Award – Best Student Presentation, established in memory of Dr. Małgorzata Iwińska (1985–2024), a brilliant GaN-growth specialist from IHPP PAS. The award—sponsored by IHPP PAS—recognizes excellence among student presenters and commemorates Dr. Iwińska’s scientific achievements and support for young researchers.
