Nanocellulose Winter School

from December 11, 2019 to December 13, 2019

Glyco@Alps is organizing a winter school on nanocellulose which will take place in "Col du Lautaret" (French Alps). The winter school will be from 11th to 13th of December 2019 and dedicated to Master and PhD students from all over Europe.


 

Glyco@Alps is organizing a winter school on nanocellulose which will take place in "Col du Lautaret" (in the middle of French Alps - 1h45 from Grenoble, 15 min from Serre chevalier ski ressort)  more precisely in Jardin du Lautaret.
The winter school will be from 11th to 13th of December 2019 and dedicated to Master and PhD students from all over Europe (expected number between 20 to 30). Glyco@Alps will pay for the travel from Grenoble to the "Jardin du Lautaret" and accomodation in two wooden chalets close to the class room.
Registrations are closed
