The COSMIC 7th network-wide event in Lacq & Pau from 18-21 February, 2020
Lat week the whole COSMIC team was updated on the ESRs’ progress on the S/T as well as the training levels during their meetings in Lacq & Pau. This was followed by a very interesting visit to the ARKEMA pilot plant with a very detailed informative tour led by Heidy Ramirez (ESR7). Taking the bus back to Pau, our COSMIC colleagues there organised a nice walk from the hotel to the Pau castle..with a tour guide telling us of the town’s rich history where the day was capped by a warm group dinner. Programme of Days 2 – AM: All members participated in the Technical Steering Committee and Supervisory board meetings where the technical WP leaders highlighted the S/T results and the coordinators presented an overview of the nontechnical components of the project, as well as gave an interactive evaluation.
