Please feel warmly invited to join the FACCE ERA-GAS Research Breakfast Club! Thematic focus varies between the 3 events – from forestry over sustainable livestock systems to soil management.
It will provide a chance to network with peers, to hear the latest cutting edge research updates and to benefit from career development advice.
All events will be held online (on zoom), so you can join from the comfort of your own desk!
FNR participates in FACCE ERA-GAS and supports related national research.
The initiative is targeted at post-doctoral researchers and PhD students and will include:
- Presentations from eminent scientists on cutting edge research topics related to GHG monitoring and mitigation from agriculture and forestry
- Career development presentations for PhD students and post-docs
