RASOPTA wrap-up November 2024

Rasopta

Nearly 3 years after the kick-off in Copenhagen the project participants met for the final meeting in Malmø in November 2024.

The final meeting in the RASOPTA ITN project took place 18-20 Novembe 2024 in Malmø, Sweden.  The program was rather future oriented, as training and site visits have been done, and all the ESRs are in their writing phase.

However with the view to their coming careers, the program covered:

  • ESR presentations
  • Assessment of RASOPTA training objectives/assessment of the whole project; reflections on possible improvements/points of attention in any future projects
  • Follow up on publication plan after PhD; Job applications; Networking; Plan for PhD thesis submission; Product development; Maintaining industry collaborations; interactive session where the ESRs are asked to prepare information/questions; industry partners and advisory board – tips and advice.
  • Supervisory Board meeting: Discussion of preparation for the final reporting/Project end and discussion of other matters.

The ESR group has become a very closely knit group who will form their own unique network in the future.  During the coming months we look forward to their thesis defenses.
