Synergies Workshop 2025
On February 26, the 2025 edition of the Synergies Workshop will take place, dedicated to promoting the research carried out by science researchers and their collaborators in the field of biotechnology to the academic community. This event is co-organized by MARE.
This year's program will cover topics ranging from Marine, Plant, Food and Health Biotechnology and will also feature Flash Talks given by students who are developing their Master's and PhD projects in Science and Biotechnology.
