The NDSU Department of Animal Sciences has scheduled a special interview seminar Thursday, Sept. 26, at 1:30 p.m. in Hultz 104. The session will feature Pawel Borowicz, NDSU animal sciences research scientist, who is a candidate for director of the Advanced Imaging and Microscopy Core Laboratory.

His topic is “Current and Future Application of Imaging Technology in the Advance Imaging and Microscopy Core Laboratory.”

Borowicz received a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Agriculture, Lublin, Poland, in 2001 and a doctorate in reproductive physiology at NDSU in 2007. His research focused on factors affecting the uterine environment during pregnancy and its effects on fetal and postnatal health in humans and livestock. Borowicz’s specific interests encompass placental growth and vascular development, or angiogenesis.

Borowicz has served as co-director of the Advanced Imaging and Microscopy Core Laboratory since its inception in 2010. The lab houses state-of-the-art imaging, image analysis and microscopy equipment that includes a laser scanning confocal inverted microscope, an upright microscope with Apotome technology and a laser capture micro-dissection microscope.

NDSU and the animal sciences department are interviewing Borowicz as part of a search process to employ a permanent director of the laboratory.

NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.
