Seven projects kicked off
All seven projects funded in BlueBio's 2nd Additional Call were present at the online kick-off meeting in the beginning of February. The main objective was for the projects to give a short presentation to exchange ideas and give a sense of togetherness. The projects also received information on the timeline and follow-up of the projects, information on the consortium itself, how Human Capacity Building, communication and ethics assessment will be followed up and the plans for activities that will promote networking between all BlueBio funded projects.
Seven projects were selected for funding and a fact sheet for each project can be found on the BlueBio website.
