SummaryMost current theoretical and phenomenological topics investigated in

Poland

Local specialties

Warsaw: BSM, SUSY, ED phenomenology and model building

Cracow: SM phenomenology, precision calculations, tools

Katowice: EW phenomenology, LR models

Wrocław: heavy ion collisions

Well integrated into European and world-wide particle theory

Present in organising committees and advisory boards

Conveners of working groups

Polish theory active, productive with good visibility

Potential of natural growth in peril

- need of brilliant PhD students

- need room for promotions
