MASSTWIN supported research of young and senior researchers at the Department of Environmental Sciences. Check the papers which were supported by the project here.
Masstwin - H2020 Twinning Project
Spreading Excellence and widening participation in support of mass spectrometry and related techniques in health, the environment, and food analysis
The objective of the twinning project is to improve the mass-spectrometry based analytical skills of researchers and to adopt best practices comparable to the world‘s leading laboratories.
This will be achieved through a series of exchange visits between the participating laboratories, exploratory workshops, group trainings and collaborative research in the field of health, food and environmental sciences. The scientific content of the project is complementary to the activities of the ISO-FOOD ERA Chair.
