We will start the year with a research project and PhD research presentation. We will discuss the research project Sustainability Trade-offs in the Netherlands’ Entangled Modernization (1900-2020) (STONEM). Maliene Kip (Eindhoven University of Technology) will discuss her PhD research within this project. Her project focuses explicitly on protein and edible oils.
We look forward to seeing many of you at the year’s first meeting! We’re excited to have some engaging discussions and hear your feedback. Since it’s the kick-off meeting, we’ll also share a few practical updates. Afterwards, we’ll have drinks to catch up and meet new network members. So, be there!
