Första Treesearch-doktoranden disputerar, följ via treesearch.se

Nu på fredag den 7/12 disputerar den första Treesearch-anslutna doktoranden, Anna Ottenhall från KTH. Dipsutationen livesänds via treesearch.se för dig som inte har möjlighet att vara på plats på KTH. Anna har i sitt doktorandprojekt undersökt olika metoder för att på miljövänliga sätt föra cellulosabaserade material antimikrobiella. Till exempel har hon undersökt hur man kan
