Sylwia Kostera received her PhD degree in 2017 at the Faculty of Chemistry, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, in Professor Marciniec research group, where she worked with organosilicon as well as organic compounds using Schlenk technique. She was participating in the Internship (Erasmus+) in Institute of Chemistry of OrganoMetallic Compounds (Italy) from September to December 2015. She spent training period working on the multi steps syntheses of novel N-containing ligands. Currently she joined to the Szafert Research Group as PostDoc and her research interests are focused on the synthesis, structure and reactivity of functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes.
