You may ask what thermoelectrics have in common with sport (especially with athletics). Actually, there is a gap in sports industry, which can be filled with thermoelectric generators.
One of our fellows, Szymon Gogoc, works hard not only on the field of thermoelectrics, but also on his running shape. This Sunday, he has finished 22nd Cracovia Marathon. His future plan is to connect science and sports fields. Congratulations to him and we wish him all the best.
