Core Projects

 

The Core Projects under the Programme of Activities are fundamental long term projects research projects carried out by two or more Contractors and funded by the resources of the Nanocem Consortium. Typically 2-3 academic partners work together sharing a PhD or Postdoc student who moves between the partners.
The Core Projects are listed below.
