Our training courses and dissemination activities involved people of all ages, from students of different education levels to researchers.
ICME SERIES
The International Course in Microbial Ecology (ICME) takes place each year in a different research institution. It is a practical course focused on cutting edge issues in microbial ecology. Participants from all over the world are selected based on CV and according to the specific course topic.
SOFT SKILLS
Reading, managing and writing scientific articles, as well as communicating results to peer-reviewers or to non-expert public and finally planning and raising funds in science are some of the additional skills a young researcher must have to be successful in science within and beyond the academic world.
