This Centre has won the status of Leading National Research Centre in Mathematical Sciences (Krajowy Naukowy Ośrodek Wiodący, KNOW). In total there have been only three winning nominations (Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry) in Science and three in Health Sciences, as the Polish Minister of Science and Higher Eucation, Barbara Kudrycka, announced on 12 July in the presence of the Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The award comes with a substantial grant which will provide financing of the Centre for the next five years with an option of an extension for another five years.
