We invite our young researchers to participate in the following lectures:
Cross Pollination: Research lecture series of the Circular Bioengineering COE
This lecture series is designed to showcase the diverse and interdisciplinary research happening across our Cluster of Excellence. Each session will feature a deep dive into a Principal Investigator's work, highlighting their unique approach to overcoming challenges in the Circular Bioeengineering research.
The series will cover the entire innovation pipeline, from foundational science to applied (bio)technology and impact assessment of the COE program.
All CB COE PhD students must complete this lecture successfully at least once. If non-BOKU students want to receive ECTS credits for course completion, they need to co-register at BOKU.
Research seminar series of the Circular Bioengineering COE
The seminar series will feature weekly discussion rounds for PhD students, Postdocs, and key researchers within the four individual cluster programs. These sessions will focus on timely and program-specific topics, fostering in-depth exploration of open questions in method development, theoretical frameworks, and practical challenges. By encouraging collaborative learning and critical discussions within each program, but not limited to individual programs, the seminars aim to advance research and deepen knowledge in the respective fields.
