PSNC provides access to a world-class e-Infrastructure for the scientific community, a specific research and development environment – DIGITAL SCIENCE – for “proof of concept” projects, prototyping or large-scale pilot projects. Another branch of our activity is in DIGITAL INDUSTRY, which is focused on the creation of innovations based on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), i.e. the execution of specific implementations for various fields of science and industry. Equally important is our work in the context of SOCIAL INNOVATION to spread knowledge and awareness of contemporary technological opportunities among various social groups, as well as actively fighting against digital exclusion.
For over 30 years, we have been open to extensive cooperation both with research institutions to explore new areas of scientific challenges in joint projects and with industry partners – new entrants or large companies for which our competence and experience can become a strong asset to develop competitive innovation. Come and join us!

One of the authors of this document is Raimundas Tuminauskas – Head of the Network Infrastructure and Services Department at PSNC.
This year's Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry highlight the groundbreaking role of artificial intelligence in those fields. To get insights into this significant development, we reached out to Dr Mikołaj Buchwald – an expert from the PSNC Internet Services Department, whose research interests include cognitive neuroscience, machine learning methodology, as well as using AI plus advanced data analysis to explain human physiology and psychology.
Thanks to the Dariah.lab infrastructure, the first pilot projects for the preservation and dissemination of cultural heritage resources have been implemented in 2023. Dariah.lab is a research infrastructure for the humanities and arts, built as part of the DARIAH-PL project. It serves to acquire, store and integrate cultural data from the humanities and social sciences, and to process, visualise and share digital resources.
Here is a short sellection of recent articles on PSNC that have appeared in some international media.
