Registratie research event

On Tuesday 16 April, the Wubbo Ockels School for Energy and Climate at the University of Groningen and New Energy Coalition are organising a research event for employees of both organisations. The event will start with an informative section on opportunities for research support, we will break up into different groups where you will be asked to brainstorm with your colleagues about possible projects related to the themes mentioned and share the ideas with the session participants. This will give you a chance to meet colleagues and initiate new collaborations. Based on the outcomes of the brainstorming sessions, we will further explore the possibilities of writing a project proposal and/or connecting other actors from our joint network to certain ideas.
