ESRs

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:
