Biobased Value Circle is a training network. We have 12 early stage researchers (ESRs) working towards their PhDs. Each ESR has her/his own research topic and research project. All 12 topics are connected. Together the PhDs will contribute to the development of a common language and methodology to stimulate cooperation along the value circle and speed up the product development process.
The topics for the 12 subprojects are:
| IRP | PhD | Topic | Organization (country) |
| 1 | Lara Bitar | Fibroin from tobacco cells for medical use | AMIBM (Netherlands) |
| 2 | Benedetta Isella | Development, Production and Prediction of Fibroin based Degradable Implants | FIT (Germany) |
| 3 | Zhou Fang | Biobased ingredients for coating formulations | CHE (Belgium) |
| 4 | Klara Bangert | Biocatalytic access to novel functional building blocks/ materials | KFUG (Austria) |
| 5 | Francesca Bertella | Self-assembling in Poly(hydroxyalkanoate)s | AMIBM (Netherlands) |
| 6 | Diogo Manuel Amaral Santos Costa | Biopolymer based Aerogels | DLR (Germany) |
| 7 | Simon Schick | Biobased staple fibers from PBS | AMIBM (Netherlands) |
| 8 | Amanda Schmidt | Biobased fiber-reinforced aortic heart valve | SPX (UK) |
| 9 | Federica Sallustio | Elastin-inspired fibers for aortic heart valves | TPNBT (Spain) |
| 10 | Felicitas Pellengahr | Life Cycle Assessment of biodegradable bioplastics | B4P (Belgium) |
| 11 | Carolina Bettker Vasconcelos | Developing a common language for biobased value circles | AMIBM (Netherlands) |
| 12 | Sophie Grässler | Optimizing change processes for the circular economy | UMLAUT (Germany) |
