Kick-off ILEE

About 70 people gathered for the first meeting of the Institute of Life Earth and Environment at the Business & Learning Centre this 11th of June. A wonderful occasion to listen to exciting talks introducing the different research topics in the morning, gather around a cup of coffee for a chat, contemplate at fascinating posters during lunch and contribute to one of the workshops.
