Dr. hab. Liliana Dobrzańska, prof. UMK, specializes in crystal engineering. She obtained her Ph.D. in coordination chemistry, a field she further combined with supramolecular chemistry during her postdoctoral stay at the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa, from 2004 to 2006, for which she received a fellowship from the Claude Leon Foundation under the supervision of Profs. Raubenheimer and Barbour. After this, she continued her work from 2007 to 2009 as a researcher at the University of Stellenbosch. In 2009, she obtained funding from FWO and moved to KU Leuven, Belgium, where she worked as a researcher in the group of Prof. Dehaen. In 2015, she joined the Center of New Technologies at the University of Warsaw as the leader of the Laboratory of Crystal Engineering. In June 2018, she returned to her alma mater and is currently working there as a University Professor. Her research group explores various aspects of crystal engineering, supramolecular and structural chemistry.
