I read physics in Lodz, Poland and received a PhD in mathematics from Oxford University, where I held a Senior Scholarship at Merton College and wrote my thesis under the supervision of Lionel Mason. After spending four years as a lecturer in the Mathematical Institute in Oxford, where I was a member of Roger Penrose's research group, I moved to Cambridge, where I am a Fellow and Graduate Tutor at Clare College and a University Professor of Mathematical Physics at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. In 2011 I received a title of Professor awarded by the President of the Republic of Poland. My research interests are Twistor Theory, Integrable Systems, Solitons, and Differential Geometry.
