The team&#8217;s primary scientific areas of interest include the following: cytogenetics and genomics of livestock and companion animals, analysis of genome structure and organisation, identification of chromosomal aberrations, and the molecular basis of fertility and reproductive disorders. The team&#8217;s research also focuses on the application of modern cytogenetic and molecular techniques to improve breeding and conserve animal genetic resources.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-531136\" src=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-5.jpg\" alt=\"uczestnicy sta\u017cuwraz z&nbsp;zespo\u0142em badawczym\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>During the internship, we gained hands-on experience with procedures related to semen decondensation, which equipped us with the necessary skills to analyse sperm chromatin structure in the context of animal reproduction studies. We also had expertise in the technique of fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) in somatic and germ cells of animals, as well as methods of differential chromosome staining, including GTG and AgNOR techniques. Furthermore, we gained experience in analysing prepared samples using light and fluorescence microscopy, as well as utilising ZEN (ZEISS) software.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-531140\" src=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg.jpg\" alt=\"uczestnicy sta\u017cu analizuj\u0105 obraz wy\u015bwietlony na monitorze\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-531132\" src=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-4.jpg\" alt=\"monitor i&nbsp;mikroskop w&nbsp;laboratorium\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-531128\" src=\"https:\/\/up.lublin.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kzt-pg-3.jpg\" alt=\"zbli\u017cenie na pr\u00f3bki na szkie\u0142kach laboratoryjnych\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>During the internship, we also expanded our skills in laser microdissection of chromosomes in various animal species using the Leica LMDS microdissector.
