About the School

NANORIGO co-organise the Venice Nano Training School in partnership with the other H2020 funded projects (BIORIMA, Gov4Nano, GRACIOUS, NanoInformaTIX, PATROLS, and RiskGONE) and celebrates its 10th anniversary. The event will take place in San Servolo (Venice, Italy) on 22nd – 27th of March 2020.

The School will feature keynote speeches, hands-on sessions and a dedicated Young Scientist Forum Day (23rd March) during which early career researchers (PhD students, PhD candidates and Post-Docs) will have the opportunity to present their work. Abstract submissions opened until the 10th of December 2019.

The School week will include a variety of hands-on sessions aimed to transfer state-of-the-art knowledge on a variety of topics from key experts to the new generation of nano-environmental, health and safety, and biomedicine professionals, using interprofessional education.

A variety of networking activities (a special 10th anniversary welcome cocktail, social event and a social dinner) will enable plenty of time and opportunities for you to widen your network and foster academic exchange.
