The workshop will provide a unique opportunity for learning about microplastics, receiving expert training, sharing knowledge and networking. During the workshop early career researchers will have the opportunity to present their research in the form of a short oral presentation and discuss this with established researchers. There will be a focus on building links for future collaborations and participants will be selected on the basis of their research potential and ability to build longer term links.
The British Council and CONCYTEC will cover the costs related to participation in the workshop, including: travel (both international and local), accommodation, meals, visa, and travel insurance. International flights and accommodation will be arranged by IMARPE, and participants will be responsible for making all other necessary arrangements.
