Post-Pre-Meeting on Tuesday 8th November 2022
We will provide the opportunity of a second “Post-Pre-Meeting”, where open questions regarding project ideas and their compatibility with the programme can be discussed. This meeting will take place on 8. November 2022 from 14:00 – 17:00 p.m. via Zoom. Base on the feedback of interested members of the consortium, we have assembled a progamme in thematic order. Please note, that each project will have 15 minutes for description and discussion (5 + 10 minutes, respectively). We are looking forward to meet you and discuss the project ideas. Of course, all members of the consortium are invited to join, as this meeting may open new opportunities for collaborations.
