BIOTRACER Training and Dissemination Events
BIOTRACER is a multi-disciplinary scientific project and a great effort has been directed towards integrating the various scientific disciplines through workshops, training events and meetings. BIOTRACER is also a multi-cultural project involving several hundred scientists at various stages in their careers. Therefore, in addition to the scientific aspects of the project, there are also educational aspects as well.
This is a schedule of BIOTRACER training and dissemination events. These events are open to BIOTRACER participants and/or invited guests. Unless otherwise identified, please contact Jeffrey Skiby (jeesk@food.dtu.dk) for additional information and registration.
This site will be updated with new events periodically, so please return and check for additional opportunities.
