Mini-Symposium 'Let's talk international cooperation in biomaterials science'

The Mini-Symposium "Lets talk international cooperation in biomaterials science" was held on June 27, 2022 in Krakow at the AGH University of Science and Technology. The event was organized by the Polish Society for Biomaterials in cooperation with the Faculty of Materials Science and Ceramics at AGH,  and the Polish Chapter of the ESB-Young Scientist Forum.

The objectives of the symposium were: 1) to share perspectives and experiences on how international cooperation shapes research on biomaterials (applicable also to other research areas) and vice versa; 2) to encourage young scientists to become more open to different scientific experiences and start their own research collaborations abroad.
