Participation in Fur4Sustain meeting in Thessaloniki, Greece (COST Action CA18220)
We had the pleasure to participate and present our work during the Fur4Sustain COST Action Meeting hosted by AUTH (Prof. Dimitrios Bikiaris group) in Thessaloniki on 26-27th of April!
In addition to the many interesting talks given by invited speakers, experienced and young scientists, we had the chance to connect with scientists from diverse backgrounds and industries, share our experiences and ideas, and forge new partnerships that could drive innovation and progress in the furan-based industry.
After the end of the meeting all the participants had the chance to enjoy a visit to our labs while Professor Triantafyllidis was explaining the projects we are involved!
