The Institute of Nuclear Physics (INP) is the largest scientific unit of the Polish Academy of Sciences employing 37 full professors, 64 associate professors, 131 postdocs and 67 PhD students. Three out of four LHC experiments, ATLAS, ALICE and LHCb, have their groups at INP. The Theory Division of the Institute gathers scientists working in the departments of Theoretical Particle Physics, Mathematical Physics, Complex Systems and Structure of Matter. The Theory Division at INP consists of 11 full professors, 12 associate professors, 9 postdocs and 8 PhD students. The members of the groups are working on formal aspects of QCD as well as on developments of Monte Carlo event generators written for purpose of LHC physics and future colliders. They are also actively collaborating with experimentalists and theory groups worldwide.
