FucoSan – from Science to Innovation Day 2019

26. november 2019, GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel

Hvilke muligheder og udfordringer tilbyder alger som fremtidens råmateriale? For at diskutere dette inviterede GEOMAR Kiel på vegne af FucoSan-projektkonsortiet alle interesserede parter fra videnskab og industri til "FucoSan - fra videnskab til innovationsdag 2019" i Kiel. Formålet med den internationale begivenhed var udvekslingen om de tidligere forskningsresultater i projektet.
